<PRE><B>Question 402856</B>
It could actually be either way.  If the jobs are two DISTINCT and SEPARATE jobs, then it is a permutation.  The order matters!!


If these are two jobs, like two vacancies in an office pool, doing essentially the same task, then this is a combination.  The order does NOT matter!!


P(6,2) = 6*5 = 30
C(6,2) = {{{(6*5)/(2*1) }}} = 15


The problem is not completely clear to me.  You decide!!
