You can put this solution on YOUR website! Find the number of different arrangements that can be made out of the letters of the word „TRIANGLE‟ if the vowels are to come together.
---
# of letters: 8
# of vowels: 3
----
# of arrangements of the 3 vowels: 3! = 6
---
Now consider the "vowel arrangement" to be a single letter.
---
# of arrangements of the "six" letters: 6! = 720
------------
Total # of arrangements 6!*3! = 720*6 = 4320
