Hi,
number of four-letter arrangements, without repetition, from the set:
{D, S, U, X}= 24 possible arrangements
How many arrangements have no vowels? without repetition, NONE
I can't make that huge tree diagram on here because it has 24 things in the last column of branches of the tree. However the answer to the question is 0 because you can't have a 4-letter arrangement with only 3 consonants without repeating one of the 3 consonants. Edwin
