Determine if the following statement is true or false:

a teacher needs to choose seven students to hand out papers. the total number of ways he may choose the students can be found using a combination.

Since the order of choosing out students to hand out papers doesnt matter because the paper handed is just the same and that the purpose or task of each student is just the same, combination should be used. Otherwise, when the order is based on ranking of students for example, permutation is used. answer is true

Iwould think that the correct answer is 8.1
