When we use permutation or combination?
Permutation is when order matters, combination is when order does not matter
Why are the answers from a permutation bigger than from a combination?
Because a permutation includes all the different arrangements or order of the items in a set. In a combination the order doesn't matter or count.
You want to get questions on permutation and combination?

How many three digit combinations are there in a 60 digit combination lock?
The "combination" for a lock is actually a permutation, an ordered sequence. So for example: 1,2,3 and 3,2,1 are the same combination, but a different permutation. When opening a lock, obviously the sequence is important, so we want to calculate the permutations. To do that, you multiply the number of possible choices for the first position times the number of possible choices for the second position, etc. Assuming that you can use the same number in all three positions (so 60 to the left, 60 to the right and 60 to the left is a valid choice), there are 60 x 60 x 60 possible permutations, or "combinations" for the lock = 216,000. If you were not allowed to use the same number twice, it would be 60 x 59 x 58 = 205,320. If you could repeat the same number, but not in sequence (so 20, 30, 20 is OK; but 20, 20, 30 is not), then there would be 60 x 59 x 59 = 208,860.
What is the combination of rational numbers and irrational?
It the combination is multiplication and the rational number is 0, then the result is rational. Otherwise it is irrational.
Difference between permutation and combination?
the permutation is an specific ordered combination. the combination is not need specific order combination...

What are relationship between permutation and combination?

What is the difference between permutation and combinations?
A permutation is an arrangement of objects in some specific order. Permutations are regarded as ordered elements. A selection in which order is not important is called a combination. Combinations are regarded as sets. For example, if there is a group of 3 different colored balls, then any group of 2 balls selected from it will be considered as a combination, whereas the different arrangements of every combination will be considered as a permutation.
