Unique Ways to Arrange the Word KISS
The below step by step work generated by this permutation calculator shows how to find how many different ways, the letters of the word KISS can be arranged.
Objective:
Find how many distinguishable ways are there to order the letters in the word KISS.
Step by step workout:
step 1 Address the formula, input parameters and values to find how many ways are there to order the letters KISS.
Formula:
nPr =n!/(n1! n2! . . . nr!)
Input parameters and values:
Total number of letters in KISS:
n = 4
Distinct subsets:
Subsets : K = 1; I = 1; S = 2;
Subsets' count:
n1(K) = 1, n2(I) = 1, n3(S) = 2
step 2 Apply the values extracted from the word KISS in the (nPr) permutations equation
nPr = 4!/(1! 1! 2! )
= 1 x 2 x 3 x 4/{(1) (1) (1 x 2)}
= 24/2
= 12
nPr of word KISS = 12
Hence,
The letters of the word KISS can be arranged in 12 distinct ways.
Apart from the word KISS, 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.
