In the below word how many words are there in which R and W are at the end positions?

RAINBOW

They have to be arranged in the following way :

                                                                    L  T  L  T  L  T  L  T  L

The 5 lions should be arranged in the 5 places marked ‘L’.

This can be done in 5! ways.

The 4 tigers should be in the 4 places marked ‘T’.

This can be done in 4! ways.

Therefore, the lions and the tigers can be arranged in 5!´ 4! ways = 2880 ways.

Let the beds be numbered 1 to 7.

Case 1 : Suppose Anju is allotted bed number 1. 

Then, Parvin cannot be allotted bed number 2. 

So Parvin can be allotted a bed in 5 ways. 

After alloting a bed to Parvin, the remaining 5 students can be allotted beds in 5! ways.

So, in this case the beds can be allotted in 5´5!ways = 600 ways.

Case 2 : Anju is allotted bed number 7. 

Then, Parvin cannot be allotted bed number 6 

As in Case 1, the beds can be allotted in 600 ways.

Case 3 : Anju is allotted one of the beds numbered 2,3,4,5 or 6. 

Parvin cannot be allotted the beds on the right hand side and left hand side of Anju’s bed. For example, if Anju is allotted bed number 2, beds numbered 1 or 3 cannot be allotted to Parvin.

Therefore, Parvin can be allotted a bed in 4 ways in all these cases.

After allotting a bed to Parvin, the other 5 can be allotted a bed in 5! ways.

Therefore, in each of these cases, the beds can be allotted in 4´ 5! = 480 ways. 

The beds can be allotted in (2x 600 + 5 x 480)ways = (1200 + 2400)ways = 3600 ways

We have to find number of permutations of 4 objects out of 6 objects.

This number is 6P4= 360

Therefore, cards can be sent in 360 ways.

We have to arrange 6 books.

The number of permutations of n objects is n! = n. (n – 1) . (n – 2) ... 2.1

Here n = 6 and therefore, number of permutations is 6.5.4.3.2.1 = 720

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

Three digit number will have unit’s, ten’s and hundred’s place.

Out of 5 given digits any one can take the unit’s place.

This can be done in 5 ways. ...              (i)

After filling the unit’s place, any of the four remaining digits can take the ten’s place.

This can be done in 4 ways. ...              (ii)

After filling in ten’s place, hundred’s place can be filled from any of the three remaining digits.

This can be done in 3 ways. ... (iii) 

So,by counting principle, the number of 3 digit numbers = 5x 4 x 3 = 60

The first letter from the right can be chosen in 26 ways because there are 26 alphabets.

Having chosen this, the second letter can be chosen in 26 ways

The first two letters can chosen in 26 x 26 = 676 ways

Having chosen the first two letters, the third letter can be chosen in 26 ways.

All the three letters can be chosen in 676 x 26 =17576 ways.

It implies that the maximum possible number of five letter palindromes is 17576 because the fourth letter is the same as the second letter and the fifth letter is the same as the first letter.

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.
