Consider all possible permutations of the letters of the word ENDEANOEL.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
`(A to p; B to s; C to q; D to q)`

If ENDEA is fixed word, then assume this as a single letter. Total number of letters = 5
Total number of arrangements `= 5!`.
B. If E is at first and last places, then total number of permutations `= 7!//2! = 21 xx 5!`
C. If D, L, N are not in last five positions
`larr D, L, N, N rarr larrE, E, E, A, O rarr`
Total number of permutations `= (4!)/(2!) xx (5!)/(3!) = 2 xx 5!`
D. Total number of odd positions = 5
Permutations of AEEEO are `(5!)/(3!)`.
Total number of even positions = 4
`therefore` Number of permutations of `N, N, D, L = (4!)/(2!)`
`rArr` Total number of permutations `= (5!)/(3!) xx (4!)/(2!) = 2 xx 5!`
