  • Permutations with restrictions.
    In this tutorial I demonstrate how to calculate permutations (arrangements) where there are restrictions in place. In these examples certain items are not to be placed together. The examples used are:
    1) In how many ways can 5 men and 3 women be arranged in a row if no two women are standing next to each other.
    2) In how many ways can the letters in the word SUCCESS be arranged if no two S's are next to each other.

    This was the hardest part of the CIE AS level Maths Statistics as it was very hard to comprehend why u could draw spaces between and apply the permutation and combination formula whilst believing that the n of n! or nCr is a fixed total number of a person or item

  • @ajmalrashid
    @ajmalrashid 7 лет назад +9

    Even in the second problem, we are obtaining a totally different answer by subtracting the number of ways where s' are together from the total number of ways:
    SUCCESS:
    Total arrangements possible= 7! / (3! . 2!)
    Number of arrangements where s' are together = 5! / 2!
    (Note: as no internal arrangement possible between s')
    Number of ways where s' are not together = 420-60 =360.

    For the first question, shouldn't the answer be multiplied by 3! because the 3 women can arrange themselves differently?

    • @_johna07
      @_johna07 3 месяца назад

      You probably don't need this anymore, but in case anyone else gets confused, it should be multiplied by 6P3 (which is 6×5×4) because there are 6 spaces in which the 3 women can arrange themselves.

    @muhammadshafieebinkhaidzir6371 2 года назад +1

    Hi there im not sure if youre still active but i was curious, for the last question isnt it possible to have more permutations considering U And E are next to each other. S could still be separated in that case. As well as when C1 and C2 are together, or U and E are all the way at the edge. Theres just a lot more permutations other than the one shown that allows for S’s to be separated.
    For instance
    _ U E _C1_C2_
    The S’s would still have spots separated here
    In this case how do we consider all those other arrangements?

    I really don't get how this works. You have 8 possible spaces, but you have made 10. Why could the men not stand next to each other in 1 or 2 instances. The conditions would still be satisfied.
    I'm probably being really stupid, but that made no sense to me whatsoever.

    • @nellamc5833
      @nellamc5833 4 года назад +1

      They do. In the case a woman does not occupy the blank space, the two men would stand next to each other.
      They would only not stand next to each other if a woman is standing between them :)

  • @JuiceBoxBoiii

    • @tanveerhasan2382
      @tanveerhasan2382 5 лет назад +4

      If there is no women standing between 2 men then they ARE standing together.
      So if if the 3 women are standing in the first 3 spaces, then m3,m4,m5 are standing together.
      If
      first woman is between m1 and m2, the 2nd woman is between m3 and m4
      and last woman is beside m5, then m2 and m3 are standing together
      (because there is no woman between them). m4 and m5 are also standing
      together for the same reason.

  • @ajmalrashid

    Hi Sir!
    I tried to solve first principle by the method taught by you in the last
    video. I am getting totally different answer. I rechecked it many a
    times.
    8 people (5 men+3 women). Total arrangements= 8! = 40320.
    Number of arrangements where women are together= 6!*3! = 4320 (Note:
    Considering women as a group, we have 6 groups and 3! internal
    arrangement for 3 women). Number of arrangements where women are not
    together= 40320-4320 = 36,000.
    It is quite different from the answer obtained by the method taught
    here. i.e. 14,400

    I am a little confused as to why in the first question, two or more men cannot stand together? It's not as if mentioned in the question that no two persons of same gender can stand together.
    So if we solve according to how I understood the question :
    Total permutation of people standing in any order -(permutations of two women insisting on standing together)
    5!*3!-(5!*1! ×2-because two women are considered as one unit)
    Answer=480

    You did not consider M1_M2_M3_M4_M5_ which would be 5! for the men and 5x4x3 for the women giving 5!x5x4x3=7200 and then why not W1_ _ _ W2 _ W3 _ or W1 _ _ W2 _ _ W3 _ and so on. You are not considering all possibilities. My method is a standard method for this type of question.

  • @ExamSolutions_Maths
    @ExamSolutions_Maths  11 лет назад

    If the first place is sat in by a boy B1 _ B2 _ B3 _ Try 3! for the number of ways the boys can arrange themselves then the girls can arrange themselves 3! ways, making 3! x 3! = 36 ways. But if a girl sits in the first place G1 _ G2 _ G3 _ then the same argument is repeated again. So it should now be 3! x3!x2 = 72. Hope that agrees with your answer.

      This may be wrong but here's my answer:
      We have -> B B B B H H H
      there are 2 possible scenarios:
      1. B B _ _ _ _ _
      and
      2. H H _ _ _ _ _
      for 1, the Bs can be arranged 4c2 different ways. the rest can be filled in 5! different ways so we have 4C2*5!
      for 2, the Hs can be arranged 3c2 different ways and the rest can be filled in 5! different ways so we have 3c2*5!
      add these up to get 1080: 4C2*5! + 3c2*5! = 1080
      Please correct me if I'm wrong...

    • @zahidullahnoori6690
      @zahidullahnoori6690 8 лет назад

      Josh Mozza I understood how you added up the two scenarios but I think the mistake in your solution lies when you are computing the arrangements of the Bs (in scenario 1) and Hs (in scenario 2). Instead of 4C2 and 3C2 respectively shouldn't it be just 2! for both of them. If I am wrong please correct me. Thank you

      No. This would be the result if there were only 3 spaces to fill for just 3 women. We have 6 spaces, hence 6x5x4.

    Why don't we begin by spacing the three women, which gives us 7 spaces and then fit the men in between?

    In the second example, we divided the spaces that can filled by 3 S's by 3!. that i understand. because the 3 S's S1 S2 S3 can be arranged 3! different ways.
    But why didnt it happen for the W's in example 1.because cant these W1 W2 W3 also be arranged in 3! different ways. they are different(women), right?
    anyone care to explain.

    For question 1: can't some of the men stand together? I'm sure there are enough spaces for the women to not be together right? Why are we forcing women to be in between men? If we do it like how u did it, what would happen to the remaining empty spaces? There's no men or women there but we are still considering that space? Or is there smth I do not understand in ur computation that eliminates those empty spaces for a given order? I feel that the workings of permutation and combination is confusing. In most of the questions we pick people for a fixed amount of space. In the first question, I feel that we are picking spaces for a fixed amount of people. It really confuses me. Please explain how it works. I feel like I'm blindly remembering.

      If there is no women standing between 2 men then the 2 men are standing together.
      So if if the 3 women are standing in the first 3 spaces, then m3,m4,m5 are standing together.
      If first woman is between m1 and m2, the 2nd woman is between m3 and m4 and last woman is beside m5, then m2 and m3 are standing together (because there is no woman between them). m4 and m5 are also standing together for the same reason.

      @@tanveerhasan2382 It's surprising how the formula eliminates the empty spaces. It's hard to picture what it means to multiply two permutations.
