Q. Prove that:
(i)

\frac{n!}{(n - r)!}

= n (n − 1) (n − 2) ... (n − (r − 1))

(ii)

\frac{n!}{(n - r)! r!} + \frac{n!}{(n - r + 1)! (r - 1)!} = \frac{(n + 1)!}{r! (n - r + 1)!}

Prove that:
(i) $\frac{n!}{(n - r)!}$
= n(n-1)(n-2)...(n-(r-1))
(ii) $\frac{n!}{(n - r)! r!} + \frac{n!}{(n - r + 1)! (r - 1)!}$
= $\frac{(n + 1)!}{r! (n - r + 1)!}$
