    Whenever the position matters, use permutation.

    If position does not matter, then it's a case of combination.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Consider the provided information.

    Whenever the position matters, use permutation.

    For example: If (X, Y) and (Y, X) are different, it is a permutation question.

    In Permutations every small detail matters.

    For example: David, John and Stuart is different from John, David, and Stuart (As the order is different).

    If position does not matter, then it's a case of combination.

    For example: (X, Y) is the same as (Y, X), It is a combination question.

    In Combinations the small details don't matter.

    For example: David, John and Stuart is not different from John, David, and Stuart.
