                              100           x               (100+x)         133.33

 

After Change     100           2x             (100+x)   

 

Now,   Since (100+x)  - 100 = 2x

 

           76 x= 20%

Q:

How many arrangements can be made out of the letters of the word DRAUGHT, the vowels never beings separated?

A) 1440 B) 720
C) 360 D) 640
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 1440

Explanation:

There are 7 letters in the word DRAUGHT, the two vowels are A and U. Since, the vowels are not to be separated, AU can be considered as one entity. Therefore, the number of letters will be 6 instead of 7. The permutations will be P(6,6) = 6! ways.

 

But the two vowels A and U can be arranged in two ways, i.e. AU and UA. The required number of arrangements = 2!.6! = 1440 ways.
