If each digit in the set A = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5} is used exactly once, in how many ways can the 5 digits be arranged? A. 6 B. 24 C. 72 D. 96 E. 120
(E) There are 5! = 120 possible arrangements of the five digits with no restrictions. Every time an item is selected, it is reduced from the pool. (5)(4)(3)(2)(1) = 120 ---------- Remember the rule of combination.
