Probability Calculation - nPm Notation - One Over Simple Single (Level 1)

This math topic features practice problems focused on probability expressions using permutations (nPm notation). Students are given problems where they need to calculate the values of expressions formatted as the inverse of permutations (e.g., 1 over 5P4). Each question is formatted to identify the correct value among multiple choice answers. This topic is an introduction to understanding and manipulating basic probability expressions involving permutations, aimed at developing skills in permutations and combinations as part of broader studies in probability and statistics.
