Hence ( n-r) = 1
![begin mathsize 14px style C presuperscript n subscript r space equals space C presuperscript n subscript r minus 1 end subscript end style](https://images.topperlearning.com/topper/tinymce/cache/b245cbe50e5e747056b34427cb1288e0.png)

if we use the substitution (n-r) = 1, then we get
![begin mathsize 14px style 2 space cross times space fraction numerator left parenthesis space r space minus 1 space right parenthesis factorial over denominator r space factorial end fraction space equals space 2 over r space equals space 1 end style](https://images.topperlearning.com/topper/tinymce/cache/08b908dfb2a684c6b3dbcab03ccf7d64.png)
i.e., r = 2
if ( n-r) = 1 , then n = 3
