Find out the rank of MONDAY in English dictionary if all alphabets are arranged in order?
Correct Answer: 327
Solution and Explanation
The correct answer is 327.
\(\therefore\) Rank = \((2\times5!+3\times 4!+2\times 3!+1\times2!)+1\)
= 240+72+12+2+1
= 327

Concepts Used:
Permutations and Combinations
Permutation:
Permutation is the method or the act of arranging members of a set into an order or a sequence.
- In the process of rearranging the numbers, subsets of sets are created to determine all possible arrangement sequences of a single data point.
- A permutation is used in many events of daily life. It is used for a list of data where the data order matters.
Combination:
Combination is the method of forming subsets by selecting data from a larger set in a way that the selection order does not matter.
- Combination refers to the combination of about n things taken k at a time without any repetition.
- The combination is used for a group of data where the order of data does not matter.
