Answer: E) C(10, 2)C(8, 1)C(7, 1)C(6, 1)C(5, 1)C(4, 2)C(2, 2)
Explanation:
According to the combinations: Number of ways to choose r things out of n things = C(n,r)
Given word: "georgianna"
It is a sequence of 10 letters with 2 a's , 2 g's , 2 n's , and one of each e, o,r, i.
If we think 10 blank spaces, then in a sequence we need 2 spaces for each of g.
Number of ways = C(10,2)
Similarly,
1 space for 'e' → C(8,1)
1 space for 'o' → C(7,1)
1 space for 'r' → C(6,1)
1 space for 'i' → C(5,1)
1 space for 'a' → C(4,2)
1 space for 'n' → C(2,2)
Required number of different sequences = C(10,2) ×C(8,1)× C(7,1)× C(6,1)×C(5,1)×C(2,2).
Hence, the correct option is E) C(10, 2)C(8, 1)C(7, 1)C(6, 1)C(5, 1)C(4, 2)C(2, 2)
