Question

Help needed and explained too!!

Answer 1

There are 1680 different ways four letters can be arranged.

Since you are using the permutation formula, plug in the values and solve.

P(n,r) = P(8,4)

= 8! / (8−4)!

= 1680

Spelling out LION is only one of the 1680 possible outcomes. Therefore the fraction 1/1680 would represent this probability.

P(LION) = 1/1680
