        In this my post,  I will solve  (C)  and will make a note about the rest.


In (C), the answer is 0 (zero), since the letter "E" does not participate in the word "ABRACADABRA",

as it is easily to see.    



Regarding the use of the term  " permutations ",  in problems with repeating letters

usually use the term "arrangements" or "distinguishable arrangements/permutations" 

to avoid ambiguity and to make the language adequately correct, clean and accurate.


As I see, the personal on the opposite side of the Internet intensively works every day
to create their own problems on their own, without having knowledge on an appropriate/standard Math terminology.

May be, it makes sense to consider hiring specialists to improve a quality of your production,
which, without this preventive measure, remains at the alarmingly low level . . .


You need a person  (or even a team of specialists)  that will edit  EVERY  your composition  EVERY  DAY,
on the  24/7,  or even  25/8  basis.
