Question 1027695
.
In how many distinguishable ways  can the letters in the word STATISTICS be arranged?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


<pre>
The word "STATISTICS" contains 10 letters.

Of these, there are 3 repeating letters "S", 3 repeating letters "T" and 2 repeating letters "I".


Did I miss something?  Uff, it looks like no.


So, the answer is {{{10!/(3!*3!*2!)}}} = 50400 distinguishable ways/words.


3!  in the denominator stands for all permutations of 3 symbols "S",
another  3!  in the denominator stands for all permutations of 3 symbols "T",
and the last   2!  in the denominator stands for all permutations of 2 symbols "I".
