a. ACTIVITY (Group Activity)
Find the Message!
Direction: Each group will be given activity sheets. The
groups will determine the value of the factorial inside
the heart and write its corresponding word in the
answer box that corresponds to its value for you to find
the message.
What is the message?
Answer: Today is another chance to get better.
b. ANALYSIS
1. From the activity, how can you relate to the
message?
2. Why do you think it is important to master
solving factorial notation?

PERMUTATIONS: FINDING P GIVEN N AND R
Permutation, by definition, is the arrangement
of objects in which order is important. If there are n
objects which will be arranged r at a time, it will be
denoted by P (n,r).
Formula:
n!
P ( n , r )= ; where n ≥ r ≥ 0
( n−r ) !
4! 4 ! 4 ×3 ×2 ×1
1. P(4 , 4)= = = =24
( 4−4 ) ! 0 ! 1
4! 4 ! 4 × 3 ×2 ×1
2. P(4 , 1)= = = =4
( 4−1 ) ! 3! 3 × 2× 1
5! 5 ! 5× 4 × 3 ×2 ×1
3. P(5 , 3)= = = =60
( 5−3 ) ! 2 ! 2 ×1
3! 3!
4. P(3 , 0)= = =1
( 3−0 ) ! 3 !
5.
6! 6 ! 6 ×5 × 4 ×3 × 2× 1
P(6 ,2)= = = =30
( 6−2 ) ! 4 ! 4 ×3 ×2 ×1
Solution:
n=10
r=3
10 ! 10 ! 10× 9 ×8 ×7 !
P ( 10 ,3 )= = =
( 10−3 ) ! 7 ! 7!
= 720
Solution:
n=7
r=5
7! 7 ! 7 × 6× 5 ×4 ×3 ×2 !
P ( 7 , 5 )= = =
( 7−5 ) ! 2 ! 2!

d. APPLICATION
Board Work Activity
Directions: Evaluate the following permutations.
1. P(18,2) Answer: 306
2. P(22,4) Answer: 175, 560
3. P(8,5) Answer: 6,720
IV. EVALUATION
Group Quiz Bee
Directions: The class will be divided into 6 groups. Each group will be raising
their answers in an illustration board from the questions shown on the
screen. The quiz bee has three rounds, the easy, average and difficult round.
There will be multiple choices in the easy round which will be answered in 10
seconds each question. The average round entails solving but with no choices
and it will be answered in 20 seconds each question. Lastly, the difficult
round has one question and will be answered within 1 minute.
5. Five students are participating in a race. In how many ways can the first
three prizes be won?
a. 60
b. 65
c. 70
d. 75
Answer: A
