SOLUTION: I am having a problem figuring this out:
How many 11-letter words can you make firm MATHEMATICS?
I have it this far:
11!/2!*2!*2!
Now I know I'm supposed to do this:
11*10*9*

Question 403729: I am having a problem figuring this out:
How many 11-letter words can you make firm MATHEMATICS?
I have it this far:
11!/2!*2!*2!
Now I know I'm supposed to do this:
11*10*9*8*7*6*5*4*3 (do I stop here or *2 also) since there is a 2 in the denominator
And then cancel out one of the 2 and divide by 4?
Or do I continue with 11*9*8...*2 and divide by 8? If the later why don't I cancel out one of the 2s on the bottom and the one on top? Thanks for all your help.
