Question
**Title: Evaluating Combinations and Permutations**

**Objective:**  
Learn how to evaluate combinations and permutations using the following examples.

**Problem:**  
Evaluate \( ^{11}C_4 \) and \( ^{12}P_3 \).

**Combinations:**  
\( ^{11}C_4 = \) [Input Box]

**Permutations:**  
\( ^{12}P_3 = \) [Input Box]

**Instructions:**  
1. **Combination Formula:** 
   - \( ^{n}C_r = \frac{n!}{r!(n-r)!} \)
   - Apply this formula to evaluate \( ^{11}C_4 \).

2. **Permutation Formula:**
   - \( ^{n}P_r = \frac{n!}{(n-r)!} \)
   - Apply this formula to evaluate \( ^{12}P_3 \).

3. Enter your answers in the provided input boxes.

Below the boxes, there are three icons: an 'X' for clearing answers, a circular arrow for resetting the problem, and a question mark for help or guidance.

Use these to assist you in solving the problem if necessary.
