How many different anagrams (including nonsensical words) can be made from the letters in the word statistics, using all the letters?

Respuesta :

50,400 different anagrams can be made from the letters in the word statistics.

Given word : STATISTICS

Anagrams are words formed by jumbling the positions of the letters given in the word.

For such problems we do factorial of number of words and divide by the repeated letters factorials.

Total number of letters = 10

They can be permutated among themselves in 10! ways.

Some letters are repeated in word STATISTICS

Since, there are 3 S's and 3 T's and 2 I's

So, Number of anagrams = [tex]\frac{10!}{3!.3!.2!}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{10 \times 9 \times 8 \times 7 \times 6 \times 5 \times 4 \times 3!}{3! \times 3 \times 2 \times 1 \times 2 \times 1}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{10 \times 9 \times 8 \times 7 \times 6 \times 5 \times 4}{3 \times 2 \times 2}[/tex]

= 10 × 9 × 8 × 7 × 2 × 5

= 50,400

50,400 different anagrams can be made from the letters in the word statistics.
