Evaluate the combination:

50C5

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 = 50 and r = 5
50C5  2  50!
  5!(50 - 5)!

Factorial Formula:

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

Calculate the numerator n!:

n! = 50!

50! = 50 x 49 x 48 x 47 x 46 x 45 x 44 x 43 x 42 x 41 x 40 x 39 x 38 x 37 x 36 x 35 x 34 x 33 x 32 x 31 x 30 x 29 x 28 x 27 x 26 x 25 x 24 x 23 x 22 x 21 x 20 x 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

50! = 30,414,093,201,713,375,576,366,966,406,747,986,832,057,064,836,514,787,179,557,289,984

Calculate (n - r)!:

(n - r)! = (50 - 5)!

(50 - 5)! = 45!

45! = 45 x 44 x 43 x 42 x 41 x 40 x 39 x 38 x 37 x 36 x 35 x 34 x 33 x 32 x 31 x 30 x 29 x 28 x 27 x 26 x 25 x 24 x 23 x 22 x 21 x 20 x 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

45! = 119,622,220,865,480,188,574,992,723,157,469,373,503,186,265,858,579,103,744

Calculate r!:

r! = 5!

5! = 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1

5! = 120
