Formulaic Maths Problems

Find the number of combinations of $7$ items from a set of $10$.

Hint: ${}^n \mathrm{C}_r = \dfrac{n!}{r! \, (n-r)!}$

${}^{10} \mathrm{C}_{7} = \dfrac{\class{inputBox step1}{~\bbox[border:2px solid blue]{\strut\rlap{\class{inputReplace}{A1}}\hspace{54px}}~}!}{\class{inputBox step1}{~\bbox[border:2px solid blue]{\strut\rlap{\class{inputReplace}{A2}}\hspace{54px}}~}! \times \class{inputBox step1}{~\bbox[border:2px solid blue]{\strut\rlap{\class{inputReplace}{A3}}\hspace{54px}}~}!}$ ${}^{10} \mathrm{C}_{7} = \dfrac{[10]!}{[7]! \times [3]!}$

Cancel and calculate. Hint: Multiply the numbers down from $n$ in the numerator, and down from $r$ in the denominator.

${}^{10} \mathrm{C}_{7} = \dfrac{\class{inputBox step2}{~\bbox[border:2px solid blue]{\strut\rlap{\class{inputReplace}{B1}}\hspace{35px}}~} \times \class{inputBox step2}{~\bbox[border:2px solid blue]{\strut\rlap{\class{inputReplace}{B2}}\hspace{35px}}~} \times \class{inputBox step2}{~\bbox[border:2px solid blue]{\strut\rlap{\class{inputReplace}{B3}}\hspace{35px}}~}}{\class{inputBox step2}{~\bbox[border:2px solid blue]{\strut\rlap{\class{inputReplace}{C1}}\hspace{35px}}~} \times \class{inputBox step2}{~\bbox[border:2px solid blue]{\strut\rlap{\class{inputReplace}{C2}}\hspace{35px}}~} \times \class{inputBox step2}{~\bbox[border:2px solid blue]{\strut\rlap{\class{inputReplace}{C3}}\hspace{35px}}~}} = \dfrac{\class{inputBox step2}{~\bbox[border:2px solid blue]{\strut\rlap{\class{inputReplace}{D1}}\hspace{80px}}~}}{\class{inputBox step2}{~\bbox[border:2px solid blue]{\strut\rlap{\class{inputReplace}{D2}}\hspace{80px}}~}} = \class{inputBox step2}{~\bbox[border:2px solid blue]{\strut\rlap{\class{inputReplace}{DR}}\hspace{80px}}~}$ ${}^{10} \mathrm{C}_{7} = \dfrac{[10] \times [9] \times [8]}{[3] \times [2] \times [1]} = \dfrac{[720]}{[6]} = [120]$
