उत्तर

2 identical books on English, i.e., p = 2

3 identical books on Hindi, i.e., q = 3

4 identical books on Mathematics, i.e., r = 4

Total number of books is n = 2 + 3 + 4 = 9

∴ the number of distinct ways of arrangement of books on a shelf is

`("n"!)/("p"!"q"!"r"!)`

= `(9!)/(2!3!4!)`

= `(9 xx 8 xx 7 xx 6 xx 5 xx 4!)/(3 xx 2 xx 1 xx 2 xx 1 xx 4!)`

= 9 × 4 × 7 × 5

= 1260.
