Hi,

Find the number of distinguishable permutations of the letters in the word

MATH  4! = 24

SOUTH  5! = 120

BALL  4!/2! = 24/2 = 12  |Note: 2 L's in the 4 letter word BALL



For example:

How many distinguishable permutations of letters are possible in the word "Tennessee?"

----------------

Ans: 9!/[4!*2!*2!] = 3780  |Note the 4 e's, 2 n's and 2 s's
