In how many ways can you rearrange the letters A, B, C, D, E?

Solutions

Expert Solution

The total number of linear arrangements obtained from  

n=5  different letters  A,B,C,D,E is given as

 nPn

 =5P5

=5!×4!×3!×2!×1!

=120

Hence number of the way to arrange A, B,C,D,E are 120.

* if you can obtain n number of different thing in this process.


number of way  is 120
