Q:

In how many different ways can the letters of the word 'LEADING' be arranged in such a way that the vowels always come together?

A) 720	B) 520
C) 700	D) 750

Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 720

Explanation:

The word 'LEADING' has 7 different letters.

When the vowels EAI are always together, they can be supposed to form one letter.

Then, we have to arrange the letters LNDG (EAI).

Now, 5 (4 + 1) letters can be arranged in 5! = 120 ways.

The vowels (EAI) can be arranged among themselves in 3! = 6 ways.

Required number of ways = (120 x 6) = 720.
