C1 C2

Solution

C1 C2
(a) 4 letters are used at a time (i) 360
(b) All letters are used at a time (ii) 720
(c) All letters are used but the first is a vowel (iii) 240

Explanation:

(a) 4 letters are used at a time = 6P4

= `(6!)/(2!)`

= 360

(b) All letters are used at a time = 6P6

= 6!

= 720

(c) All letters are used but first letter is vowel = 2 × 5!

= 2 × 120

= 240
