A trumpet section includes two musicians. If they hold an audition to determine chair order within the section, and there are to be no ties, how many distinct chair orders can result?	Pick one:
A) 240
B) 125
C) 120
D) 100
E) 2
We have a word problem using permutations. We must identify the number of total items in the group. There are two possible musicians who could be placed in the first chair. To determine the number of possible orderings, we multiply these numbers, which we can express as 2!. Now 2! = (2)(1) = 2=2
<result>E</result>
