Does the order matter?

Pick r from n. If arrangement matters (a race podium) use permutations; if only the group matters (a team) use combinations.

ⁿPᵣ = 5! / (53)!

order matters — arrangements
ⁿCᵣ = ⁿPᵣ / 3!
10
order ignored — selections

💡 Every selection of 3 can be arranged 3! ways, so ⁿPᵣ is exactly 3! times ⁿCᵣ.
