How many distinguishable permutations for the letters in the word "statistical" are there?

You can use the same reasoning as I provided on your other question (URL 24277817).

"statistical" has 11 total characters, thus 11! total permutations.

• s, a, and i each appear 2 times

• t appears 3 times

Then the number of distinguishable permutations is

11! / (2! × 2! × 2! × 3!) = 831,600
