Answer:

Permutation is used.

No. of arrangements = 1260

Explanation:

Permutation is used for choosing & arrangement of 'r' out of 'n' objects, when sequence is important.

Total no. of alphabets in CORRECT = 7

C is repeated twice, R is repeated twice

So, Total No. of arrangements = 7 !

(2!)(2!)

= 5040 / 4

= 1260
