Ex 7.3, 9 How many words, with or without meaning can be made from the letters of the word MONDAY, assuming that no letter is repeated, if 4 letters are used at a time, Total number of alphabets in MONDAY = 6 Hence n = 6 If 4 letters are used at a time, r = 4 Number of different words = nPr = 6P4 = (6! )/(6 − 4)! = 6!/2! = (6 × 5 × 4 × 3 × 2!)/2! = 6 × 5 × 4 × 3 = 360 Ex7.3, 9 How many words, with or without meaning can be made from the letters of the word MONDAY, assuming that no letter is repeated, if (ii) all letters are used at a time, Total number of alphabets in MONDAY = 6 Hence n = 6 If all letters are used at a time, r = 6 Number of different words = nPr = 6P6 = (6! )/(6 − 6)! = 6!/0! = 6!/1 = 6! = 6 × 5 × 4 × 3 × 2 × 1 = 720 Ex 7.3, 9 How many words, with or without meaning can be made from the letters of the word MONDAY, assuming that no letter is repeated, if (iii) all letters are used but first letter is a vowel?
