Out of 7 consonants and 4 vowels, how many words of 3 consonants and 2 vowels can be formed?

We may have(1 black and 2 non-black) or (2 black and 1 non-black) or (3 black).

∴ Required number of ways	= (3C1 x 6C2) + (3C2 x 6C1) + (3C3)
	= ❨ 3 x 6 x 5 ❩ + ❨ 3 x 2 x 6 ❩ + 1 2 x 1 2 x 1
	= (45 + 18 + 1)
	= 64.

The word 'OPTICAL' contains 7 different letters.

When the vowels OIA are always together, they can be supposed to form one letter.

Then, we have to arrange the letters PTCL (OIA).

Now, 5 letters can be arranged in 5! = 120 ways.

The vowels (OIA) can be arranged among themselves in 3! = 6 ways.

∴ Required number of ways = (120 x 6) = 720.

Let original length = x metres and original breadth = y metres.

Original area = (xy) m².

New length =	❨	120	x	❩m	=	❨	6	x	❩m.
		100					5

New breadth =	❨	120	y	❩m	=	❨	6	y	❩m.
		100					5

New Area =	❨	6	x x	6	y	❩m2	=	❨	36	xy	❩m2.
		5		5					25

The difference between the original area = xy and new-area 36/25 xy is

= (36/25)xy - xy

= xy(36/25 - 1)

= xy(11/25) or (11/25)xy

∴ Increase % =	❨	11	xy x	1	x 100	❩%	= 44%.
		25		xy

Area to be plastered	= [2(l + b) x h] + (l x b)
	= {[2(25 + 12) x 6] + (25 x 12)} m2
	= (444 + 300) m2
	= 744 m2.

∴ Cost of plastering = Rs.	❨	744 x	75	❩	= Rs. 558.
			100

We have: (l - b) = 23 and 2(l + b) = 206 or (l + b) = 103.

Solving the two equations, we get: l = 63 and b = 40.

∴ Area = (l x b) = (63 x 40) m² = 2520 m².

The word 'LEADER' contains 6 letters, namely 1L, 2E, 1A, 1D and 1R.

∴ Required number of ways =	6!	= 360.
	(1!)(2!)(1!)(1!)(1!)

There are 6 letters in the given word, out of which there are 3 vowels and 3 consonants.

Let us mark these positions as under:

(1) (2) (3) (4) (5) (6)

Now, 3 vowels can be placed at any of the three places out 4, marked 1, 3, 5.

Number of ways of arranging the vowels = ³P₃ = 3! = 6.

Also, the 3 consonants can be arranged at the remaining 3 positions.

Number of ways of these arrangements = ³P₃ = 3! = 6.

Total number of ways = (6 x 6) = 36.

The word 'LEADING' has 7 different letters.

When the vowels EAI are always together, they can be supposed to form one letter.

Then, we have to arrange the letters LNDG (EAI).

Now, 5 (4 + 1 = 5) letters can be arranged in 5! = 120 ways.

The vowels (EAI) can be arranged among themselves in 3! = 6 ways.

∴ Required number of ways = (120 x 6) = 720.

Required number of ways	= (8C5 x 10C6)
	= (8C3 x 10C4)
	= ❨ 8 x 7 x 6 x 10 x 9 x 8 x 7 ❩ 3 x 2 x 1 4 x 3 x 2 x 1
	= 11760.

In the word 'CORPORATION', we treat the vowels OOAIO as one letter.

Thus, we have CRPRTN (OOAIO).

This has 7 (6 + 1) letters of which R occurs 2 times and the rest are different.

Number of ways arranging these letters =	7!	= 2520.
	2!

Now, 5 vowels in which O occurs 3 times and the rest are different, can be arranged

in	5!	= 20 ways.
	3!

∴ Required number of ways = (2520 x 20) = 50400.
