Answer:

4989600 ways

Explanation:

From the question,

The word MATHEMATICS can be arranged in n!/(r₁!r₂!r₃!)

⇒ n!/(r₁!r₂!r₃!) ways

Where n = total number of letters, r₁ = number of times M appears r₂ = number of times A appears, r₃ = number of times T appears.

Given: n = 11, r₁ = 2, r₂ = 2, r₃ = 2

Substitute these value into the expression above

11!/(2!2!2!) = (39916800/8) ways

4989600 ways

Hence the number of ways MATHEMATICS can be arranged without duplicate is 4989600 ways
