Advertisements

उत्तर

The word UNIVERSITY consists of 10 letters that include four vowels of which two are same.
Thus, the vowels  can be arranged amongst themselves in

\[\frac{4!}{2!}\]ways.Keeping the vowels as a single entity, we are left with 7 letters, which can be arranged in 7! ways.
By fundamental principle of counting, we get,
Number of words =  7!\[\times\]\[\frac{4!}{2!}\] = 60480
