There are n1 ways to do the first task and n2 ways to do the second task. Then there are n1∙n2 ways to do the procedure. Example: How many bit strings of length seven are there? Solution: Since each of the seven bits is either a 0 or a 1, the answer is 27 = 128. The Product Rule Example: How many different license plates can be made if each plate contains a sequence of three uppercase English letters followed by three digits? Solution: By the product rule, there are 26 ∙ 26 ∙ 26 ∙ 10 ∙ 10 ∙ 10 = 17,576,000 different possible license plates. Counting Functions Counting Functions: How many functions are there from a set with m elements to a set with n elements? Solution: Since a function represents a choice of one of the n elements of the codomain for each of the m elements in the domain, the product rule tells us that there are n ∙ n ∙ ∙ ∙ n = nm such functions. Counting One-to-One Functions: How many one-to-one functions are there from a set with m elements to one with n elements? Solution: Suppose the elements in the domain are a1, a2, , am. There are n ways to choose the value of a1 and n−1 ways to choose a2, etc. The product rule tells us that there are n(n−1) (n−2)∙∙∙(n−m +1) such functions.
