Everything Everywhere Daily - Permutations and Combinations (Encore)

Whenever there is a lottery, the odds of winning are given. 

If you go to a pizzeria, they might tell you the number of possible pizzas that can be made, given their toppings. 

If you have a combination lock, it is secured because of the number of different solutions that are possible.

All of these things might seem different, but they are all part of the same branch of mathematics. 

Learn more about Permutations and Combinations and how they work on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
