उत्तर

The given word is MISSISSIPPI.

Number of letters in the word = 11

Number of S’s = 4

Number of I’s = 4

Number of P’s = 2

Number of M’s = I

Hence the total number of distinct words

= `(11!)/(4! xx 4! xx 2! xx 1!)`

= `(11 xx 10 xx 9 xx 8 xx 7 xx 6 xx 5 xx 4!)/(4 xx 3 xx 2 xx 1 xx 4! xx 2 xx 1 xx 1)`

= `(11 xx 10 xx 9 xx 8 xx 7 xx 6 xx 5)/(4 xx 3 xx 2 xx 2)`

= `(11 xx 10 xx 9 xx 8 xx 7 xx 6 xx 5)/(8 xx 6)`

= 10 × 10 × 9 × 7 × 5

= 34,650
