Formula to Bracket Notation (Level 1)

This math topic practices converting factorial expressions commonly used in probability into binomial coefficient notation, also known as "choose" notation. It includes exercises where students are asked to match expressions, such as factorials divided by the product of factorials, to their corresponding binomial coefficient form. This is fundamental for understanding combinations, a key concept in probability and statistics. The questions gradually progress in complexity, helping students master the conversion between these two notations.
