Here's the Solution to this Question
(1) Answer: 6!= 720 ways
Explanation:
There are 6 ways to choose the first person, then 5 to choose the next, etc.
Hence the number of possible choices is:
(2) QUALITY
(a) Since no letters of word QUALITY are repeated
There are 7 ways to choose the first alphabet of string, then 6 to choose the next, etc.
So, total number of strings of length 5 =
(b) If repetitions are allowed
Then, There are 7 ways to choose the first alphabet of string, and 7 to choose the next, etc.
So, total number of strings of length 5 =
(c) Start with letter L and repetition is not allowed
Then the string has one alphabet fixed and remaining 4 can be arranged
So, total number of strings =
(3) Total number of arrangements =
(4) CHANGE
Vowels in words are : AE
Then can be arranged as :
SO, there are 240 ways in which the word CHANGE can be arranged such that vowels are always together.
(5) INFORMATION
Number of letters = 11
Repetitions: 'I'=2 times
'N'= 2 times
'0'= 2 times
Hence, Total number of permutations of word =
