Santa has to decide how he will harness his reindeer to the sleigh. If he puts them in a single file, how many different ways can he arrange the eight reindeer? (Rudolph, of course, is always first so we do not need to use him to figure our answer.)
The answer is somewhere in the thousands, i can tell you that.
Many Different Ways, Rudolph, Santa Reindeer, Single File

8X7X6X5X4X3X2X1=?
***Rudolph got in front to light the way, the other eight were still there doing the real work

Rudolf is always first so there are only 7 reindeer to arrange.
7×6x5×4x3×2x1=5040
?
Tricky Question… We dont know if Rudolph is included in the eight or if we need to remove him from it…. Guess you would have to know all of Santa’s reindeer….
Answer is: 40,320
Where is he planning on going? The Caribbean for a break, now that the holidays are over?
With Rudolph: 16,777,216
Without Rudolph: 40,320
