What is the classical formula for calculating probability?

• Probability = Desired outcomes / Total outcomes

• Probability = Desired outcomes * Total outcomes

• Probability = (Desired outcomes + Total outcomes) / 2

• Probability = Total outcomes / Desired outcomes

What is the significance of dividing by factorial in combination calculations?

• It decreases the total number of possible outcomes.

• It represents the number of desired outcomes.

• It increases the total number of possible outcomes.

• It adjusts for the order of selection not mattering.
