Question Detail

How many words can be formed from the letters of the word "AFTER", so that the vowels never comes together.

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

We need to find the ways that vowels NEVER come together.
Vowels are A, E
Let the word be FTR(AE) having 4 words.
Total ways = 4! = 24
Vowels can have total ways 2! = 2
Number of ways having vowel together = 48
Total number of words using all letter = 5! = 120

Number of words having vowels never together = 120-48
= 72

1. In how many ways can the letters of the CHEATER be arranged

20160
2520
360
80

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

As we can see the letter "E" is twice in given word, so Required Number
\begin{aligned}
= \frac{7!}{2!} \\
= \frac{7*6*5*4*3*2!}{2!} \\
= 2520
\end{aligned}

2. Evaluate \begin{aligned}
\frac{30!}{28!}
\end{aligned}

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

\begin{aligned}
= \frac{30!}{28!} \\
= \frac{30 * 29 * 28!}{28!} \\
= 30 * 29 = 870
\end{aligned}

3. How many words can be formed by using all letters of TIHAR

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

First thing to understand in this question is that it is a permutation question.
Total number of words = 5
Required number =
\begin{aligned}
^5{P}_5 = 5! \\
= 5*4*3*2*1 = 120
\end{aligned}

4. Evaluate combination
\begin{aligned}
^{100}{C}_{97} = \frac{100!}{(97)!(3)!} \\
\end{aligned}

161700
151700
141700
131700

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

\begin{aligned}
^{n}{C}_r = \frac{n!}{(r)!(n-r)!} \\
^{100}{C}_{97} = \frac{100!}{(97)!(3)!} \\
= \frac{100*99*98*97!}{(97)!(3)!} \\
= \frac{100*99*98}{3*2*1} \\
= \frac{100*99*98}{3*2*1} \\
= 161700
\end{aligned}
