Unique Ways to Arrange the Word LOTUS
The below step by step work generated by this permutation calculator shows how to find how many different ways, the letters of the word LOTUS can be arranged.
Objective:
Find how many distinguishable ways are there to order the letters in the word LOTUS.
Step by step workout:
step 1 Address the formula, input parameters and values to find how many ways are there to order the letters LOTUS.
Formula:
nPr =n!/(n1! n2! . . . nr!)
Input parameters and values:
Total number of letters in LOTUS:
n = 5
Distinct subsets:
Subsets : L = 1; O = 1; T = 1; U = 1; S = 1;
Subsets' count:
n1(L) = 1, n2(O) = 1, n3(T) = 1, n4(U) = 1, n5(S) = 1
step 2 Apply the values extracted from the word LOTUS in the (nPr) permutations equation
nPr = 5!/(1! 1! 1! 1! 1! )
= 1 x 2 x 3 x 4 x 5/{(1) (1) (1) (1) (1)}
= 120/1
= 120
nPr of word LOTUS = 120
Hence,
The letters of the word LOTUS can be arranged in 120 distinct ways.
Apart from the word LOTUS, you may try different words with various lengths with or without repetition of letters to observe how it affects the nPr word permutation calculation to find how many ways the letters in the given word can be arranged.
