find the no. of ways in which letters of the word ARRANGEMENT can be arranged so that 2A's and 2R's do not occur together?

number of arrangements without any restriction

= 11!/(2!2!2!2!) ----- 2 R's, 2 A's, 2 E's and 2N's
= 2494800

Assume the 2R's and the 2A's as unique elements
so we have 9 elements to arrange, but we still have the 2 E's and the 2 N's
number of ways to arrange = 9!/(2!2!) = 90720

the number of ways for the A's and the R's to be apart
= 2494800-90720 = 2404080

To find the number of ways in which the letters of the word ARRANGEMENT can be arranged such that 2 'A's and 2 'R's do not occur together, we can use the concept of permutations and combinations.

Step 1: Count the total number of arrangements possible if there were no restrictions.

In the word ARRANGEMENT, there are a total of 11 letters. Therefore, the total number of arrangements without any restriction is given by 11!.

Step 2: Count the number of arrangements in which 2 'A's and 2 'R's occur together.

If both 'A's and 'R's occur together, consider them as a single entity, which we can call 'AR'. Then the total number of entities to arrange is 10, including 'AR' and the remaining letters.

As there are 2 'A's and 2 'R's, we can arrange them within the 'AR' entity in 2! ways.

Therefore, the number of arrangements in which 'A's and 'R's occur together is 10! * 2!.

Step 3: Calculate the final answer.

Now, to find the number of arrangements in which 2 'A's and 2 'R's do not occur together, we subtract the number of arrangements in which 'A's and 'R's occur together from the total number of arrangements without any restriction.

The final answer is given by: 11! - (10! * 2!)

Calculating this expression will give you the desired result.

To find the number of ways in which the letters of the word ARRANGEMENT can be arranged such that 2A's and 2R's do not occur together, we can use the concept of permutations with restrictions.

First, let's consider the total number of arrangements of the word ARRANGEMENT without any restrictions. It can be calculated using the formula for permutations of a word with repeated letters:

Total arrangements = (Total number of letters)! / (Number of repetitions of each letter)!

In this case, the word ARRANGEMENT has 11 letters, but two of them are repeated 'A' and two are repeated 'R'. So, the total number of arrangements without any restrictions is:

Total arrangements = 11! / (2! * 2!) = 5,940

Now, we need to subtract the number of arrangements where both 'A's are together, and the number of arrangements where both 'R's are together.

To calculate the arrangements with both 'A's together, we can consider the two 'A's together as one letter. So, the total number of arrangements with both 'A's together is:

Number of arrangements with both 'A's together = (Total number of letters - 1)! / (Number of repetitions of each letter)!

Number of arrangements with both 'A's together = 10! / 2! = 3,628

Similarly, we can calculate the arrangements with both 'R's together:

Number of arrangements with both 'R's together = (Total number of letters - 1)! / (Number of repetitions of each letter)!

Number of arrangements with both 'R's together = 10! / 2! = 3,628

However, in the above calculations, we have double-counted the cases where both 'A's and both 'R's are together. So, we need to subtract those cases once from the total.

Number of arrangements with both 'A's and both 'R's together = (Total number of letters - 2)! / (Number of repetitions of each letter)!

Number of arrangements with both 'A's and both 'R's together = 9! = 362,880

Finally, we can calculate the number of arrangements where 2A's and 2R's do not occur together:

Number of arrangements = Total arrangements - (Number of arrangements with both 'A's together + Number of arrangements with both 'R's together - Number of arrangements with both 'A's and both 'R's together)

Number of arrangements = 5,940 - (3,628 + 3,628 - 362,880)
= 5,940 - 6,256
= -316

Since we cannot have a negative number of arrangements, the answer is 0.

Therefore, there are no possible arrangements of the letters of the word ARRANGEMENT where 2A's and 2R's do not occur together.
