Enter the total number of Tarot cards in the deck and the number of cards drawn into the calculator to determine the number of combinations.
Tarot Combinations Formula
The following formula is used to calculate the number of possible combinations in a Tarot deck.
C = n! / (r!(n-r)!)
Variables:
- C is the number of combinations
- n is the total number of Tarot cards in the deck
- r is the number of cards drawn
- ! denotes factorial, which is the product of all positive integers up to that number
To calculate the number of combinations, first calculate the factorial of the total number of Tarot cards in the deck. Then, calculate the factorial of the number of cards drawn and the factorial of the difference between the total number of cards and the number of cards drawn. Divide the first result by the product of the second and third results.
What is a Tarot Combinations?
Tarot combinations refer to the blending of meanings of two or more tarot cards that appear together in a reading. Each card in a tarot deck has its own individual symbolism and interpretation, but when they are read together, their meanings can change or deepen, creating a more nuanced and detailed message. This combination can provide a more comprehensive understanding of the situation or question at hand. The interpretation of these combinations can vary greatly depending on the reader's intuition, the context of the question, and the specific tarot spread used.
How to Calculate Tarot Combinations?
The following steps outline how to calculate Tarot Combinations using the formula: C = n! / (r!(n-r)!)
- First, determine the total number of Tarot cards in the deck (n).
- Next, determine the number of cards drawn (r).
- Next, calculate the factorial of n, denoted as n!.
- Next, calculate the factorial of r, denoted as r!.
- Next, calculate the factorial of (n-r), denoted as (n-r)!
- Finally, calculate the number of combinations (C) using the formula C = n! / (r!(n-r)!).
- After inserting the values of n and r into the formula and calculating the result, you will get the number of Tarot combinations.
Example Problem:
Use the following variables as an example problem to test your knowledge:
Total number of Tarot cards in the deck (n) = 78
Number of cards drawn (r) = 3
