^ Thanks for helping kanika! I was wondering whether there is a formula to derive the number of possible combinations (for a circular arrangement). If you do know the answer, please help!
There are infinitely many numbers and so infinitely many possible combinations.
In a 7 segment display, the symbols can be created using a selected number of segments where each segment is treated as a different element.When 1 segment is used, the possible positions are 7because it can be any of the 7 segments (7C1=7).When 2 segments are used, the number of possible combinations are 7C2=21.When 3 segments are used, the number of possible combinations are 7C3=35When 4 segments are used, the number of possible combinations are 7C4=35When 5 segments are used, the number of possible combinations are 7C5=21When 6 segments are used, the number of possible combinations are 7C6=7When 7 segments are used, the number of possible combinations are 7C7=1Adding the combinations, 7+21+35+21+7+1=127Therefore, 127 symbols can be made using a 7 segment display!
Assuming that repeated numbers are allowed, the number of possible combinations is given by 40 * 40 * 40 = 64000.If repeated numbers are not allowed, the number of possible combinations is given by 40 * 39 * 38 = 59280.
The number of combinations - not to be confused with the number of permutations - is 2*21 = 42.

2^n possible combinations

Since a number can have infinitely many digits, there are infinitely many possible combinations.
If repeats are allowed than an infinite number of combinations is possible.

There are countless possible liquid combinations, depending on the types of liquids you are considering (water, juice, alcohol, etc.) and how many you want to mix together. The number of combinations would be exponential, as each additional liquid increases the number of possible combinations exponentially.
The number of combinations - not to be confused with the number of permutations - is 2*21 = 42.
If the order of the numbers are important, then this is a simple combination problem. There are 10 possible numbers to choose from for the first number. Then there are 9 options for the second number. Then there are 8 options for the third, and so on. Thus, the number of possible combinations can be calculated as 10x9x8x7x6x5. This comes out at 151,200 possible combinations.
