To determine the number of ways to pick a set of 5 crayons from a box of 8 crayons, we can use the combination formula, which is given by ( C(n, k) = \frac{n!}{k!(n-k)!} ). Here, ( n = 8 ) and ( k = 5 ). Therefore, the number of combinations is ( C(8, 5) = \frac{8!}{5!(8-5)!} = \frac{8!}{5!3!} = \frac{8 \times 7 \times 6}{3 \times 2 \times 1} = 56 ). Thus, there are 56 different ways to pick a set of 5 crayons from the box.
