Ahhh yes, the time-honored permutations.
The permutation format, to start with, is P(n, r).
The formula is:
In this instance, we have P(8, 3).
8 will go in for n and 3 for r. So now let's solve.
[tex]\frac{8!}{(8 - 3)!}[/tex] → [tex]\frac{8!}{5!}[/tex] → [tex]\frac{8*7*6*5*4*3*2*1}{5*4*3*2*1}[/tex] → [tex]8*7*6[/tex] → [tex]336[/tex]
Therefore 336 is our answer. I hope this answers your question.
