You can put this solution on YOUR website! When a string of letters must remain intact the string can be
treated as a single leter
-----------------------
How many permutations of the leters ABCDEFG contain
(a)the string BCD
5!
-----------
(b)the string CFGA
4!
--------
(c)the string BA & GF
5!
-----------
(d)the string ABC & DE
