Evaluate the combination:

48C6

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 = 48 and r = 6
48C6  2  48!
  6!(48 - 6)!

Factorial Formula:

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

Calculate the numerator n!:

n! = 48!

48! = 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

48! = 12,413,915,592,536,072,528,327,568,319,343,857,274,511,609,591,659,416,151,654,400

Calculate (n - r)!:

(n - r)! = (48 - 6)!

(48 - 6)! = 42!

42! = 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

42! = 1,405,006,117,752,879,788,779,635,797,590,784,832,178,972,610,527,232

Calculate r!:

r! = 6!

6! = 6 x 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1

6! = 720
