• Be sure to specify Comp for Mode in the Setup screen.
Example 1 To calculate the possible number of different arrangements using 4
items selected from among 10 items
Formula Operation
10 P 4 = 5040
10 K6( g) 3(PROB) 2(
n P r ) 4 w
Example 2 To calculate the possible number of different combinations of 4 items
that can be selected from among 10 items
Formula Operation
10 C 4 = 210

n C r ) 4 w
k Greatest Common Divisor (GCD), Least Common Multiple (LCM)
Example Operation
To determine the greatest common
divisor of 28 and 35
(GCD (28, 35) = 7)
K6( g) 4(NUMERIC) 6( g) 2(GCD) 28
, 35 )w
To determine the least common multiple
of 9 and 15
