उत्तर

There are 9 letters in the word LOGARITHM.
These letters can be arranged among themselves in 9P9 = 9! ways.
∴ n(S) = 9!
Let A be the event that vowels are always together.
The word LOGARITHM consists of 3 vowels (O, A, I) and 6 consonants (L, G, R, T, H, M).
3 vowels can be arranged among themselves in = 3P3 = 3! ways.
Considering 3 vowels as one group, 6 consonants and this group (i.e., altogether 7) can be arranged in 7P7 = 7! ways.
∴ n(A) = 7! × 3!

∴ P(A) = `("n"("A"))/("n"("S"))`

= `(7!xx3!)/(9!)`
