Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
36
The word MOBILE has three even piaces and three odd places. It has 3 consonants and 3 vowels. In three odd places, we have to fix up 3 consonants, which can be done in `.^(3)P_(3)` ways.
Hence, the total number of ways is `.^(3)P_(3)xx .^(3)P_(3)=36`.
