Solution

The number of words which can be formed out of the letters of the word ARTICLE, so that vowels occupy the even place is 144.

Explanation:

Total number of letters in the ‘ARTICLE’ is 7 out which A, E, I are vowels and R, T, C, L are consonants

Given that vowels occupy even place

∴ Possible arrangement can be shown as below

C, V, C, V, C, V, C i.e. on 2nd, 4th and 6th places

Therefore, number of arrangement = 3P3 = 3! = 6 ways

Now consonants can be placed at 1, 3, 5 and 7th place

∴ Number of arrangement = 4P4 = 4! = 24

So, the total number of arrangements = 6 × 24 = 144.
