In how mny ways can a five letter lcense plate be made wth the letters from APRIL if none of the letters are repeated?
----------------
The letters are all different, so:
5 ways to pick the 1st letter
4 ways to pick the next
3 ways to pick the next
2 ways
1 way to pick the last
-----------------------------
Total # of ways = 5! = 120
