Step-by-step explanation:

The expression is used to denote the number of ways you can choose things from a set of things. It is equal to:

In this case, and , so:

You can also think of it like this:

is saying 9 choose 2. We are choosing 2 things from a set of 9 things, where order doesn't matter. For the first thing we choose, there are 9 options. Then 8 options, 7, and so on. Since we're only choosing two things, there are permutations. However, the order of which we choose each thing does not affect what we've chosen overall (e.g. If we're choosing two donut flavors original and strawberry, it doesn't matter which flavor I choose first, because I'm still getting the same two flavors).
