19 Combinations of 9 Image to Crop

Evaluate the combination:

19C9

Combination Definition:

A unique order or arrangement

Combination Formula:
nCr  =  n!
  r!(n - r)!

where n is the number of items
r is the unique arrangements.

Plug in n = 19 and r = 9
19C9  2  19!
  9!(19 - 9)!

Factorial Formula:

n! = n * (n - 1) * (n - 2) * .... * 2 * 1

Calculate the numerator n!:

n! = 19!

19! = 19 x 18 x 17 x 16 x 15 x 14 x 13 x 12 x 11 x 10 x 9 x 8 x 7 x 6 x 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1

19! = 121,645,100,408,832,000

Calculate (n - r)!:

(n - r)! = (19 - 9)!

(19 - 9)! = 10!

10! = 10 x 9 x 8 x 7 x 6 x 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1

10! = 3,628,800

Calculate r!:

r! = 9!

9! = 9 x 8 x 7 x 6 x 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1

9! = 362,880

Calculate 19C9
19C9  =  121,645,100,408,832,000
  362,880 x 3,628,800

19C9  =  121,645,100,408,832,000
  1,316,818,944,000

19C9 = 92,378
