Total number of letters in the word ABYSMAL are 7

Number of ways these 7 letters can be arranged are 7! ways

But the letter is repeated and this can be arranged in 2! ways

Total number of ways arranging ABYSMAL = 7!/2! = 5040/2 = 2520 ways.

NUMERICAL has 9 positions in which 2, 4, 6, 8 are even positions.

And it contains 5 consonents i.e, N, M, R, C & L. Hence this cannot be done as 5 letters cannot be placed in 4 positions.

Therefore, Can't be determined.

Given 0.875 and 0.375

0.875 ::

After decimal point there are 3 digits 875

Now, mutiply and divide 0.875 with 1000

$$\begin{gathered} 0.875 x 10001000 = 8751000 \\ Now, this can be reduced to fraction 78 \\ Therefore, 0.875 as fraction = 78 \end{gathered}$$

Similarly,

0.375 :: 

After decimal point there are 3 digits 375

Now, mutiply and divide 0.375 with 1000

$$\begin{gathered} 0.375 x 10001000 = 3751000 \\ Now, this can be reduced to fraction 38 \\ Therefore, 0.375 as fraction = 38 \end{gathered}$$
