The bus fromA to B can be selected in 3 ways.
The bus from B to C can be selected in 4 ways.
The bus from C toD can be selected in 2 ways.
The bus fromD to E can be selected in 3 ways.
So, by the General Counting Principle, one can travel fromA to E in 3 x 4 x 2 x 3 ways = 72
Required number of ways= = ( )= 11760.
In the word 'MATHEMATICS', we treat the vowels AEAI as one letter.
Thus, we have MTHMTCS (AEAI).
Now, we have to arrange 8 letters, out of which M occurs twice, T occurs twice and the rest are different.
Number of ways of arranging these letters = 8!/(2! x 2!)= 10080.
Now, AEAI has 4 letters in which A occurs 2 times and the rest are different.
Number of ways of arranging these letters =4!/2!= 12.
Required number of words = (10080 x 12) = 120960
Out of 26 alphabets two distinct letters can be chosen in ways. Coming to numbers part, there are 10 ways.(any number from 0 to 9 can be chosen) to choose the first digit and similarly another 10ways to choose the second digit. Hence there are totally 10X10 = 100 ways.
Combined with letters there are X 100 ways = 65000 ways to choose vehicle numbers.
For any set of 4 points we get a cyclic quadrilateral. Number of ways of choosing 4 points out of 12 points is = 495.
Therefore, we can draw 495 quadrilaterals
Since order does not matter, use the combination formula
= 24/6 = 4
If a card hand that consists of four Queens and an Ace is rearranged, nothing has changed.
The hand still contains four Queens and an Ace. Thus, use the combination formula for problems with cards.
We have 4 eights and 4 sevens.
We want 3 eights and 2 sevens.
C(have 4 eights, want 3 eights) x C(have 4 sevens, want 2 sevens)
C(4,3) x C(4,2) = 24
Therefore there are 24 different ways in which to deal the desired hand.
ABACUS is a 6 letter word with 3 of the letters being vowels.
If the 3 vowels have to appear together, then there will 3 other consonants and a set of 3 vowels together.
These 4 elements can be rearranged in 4! Ways.
The 3 vowels can rearrange amongst themselves in 3!/2! ways as "a" appears twice.
Hence, the total number of rearrangements in which the vowels appear together are (4! x 3!)/2!
There are seven positions to be filled.
The first position can be filled using any of the 7 letters contained in PROBLEM.
The second position can be filled by the remaining 6 letters as the letters should not repeat.
The third position can be filled by the remaining 5 letters only and so on.
Therefore, the total number of ways of rearranging the 7 letter word = 7*6*5*4*3*2*1 = 7! ways.
