L N A I

There are total 131 letters out of which 7 are consonants and 6 are vowels. Also ther are 2L's , 2N's, 2A's and 2I's.

If all the consonants are together then the numberof arrangements = $\frac{7!}{2!}$ x 1/2! .

But the 7 consonants can be arranged themselves in $\frac{7!}{2!}$ x 1/2! ways.

Hence the required number of ways = ${(\frac{7!}{2! 2!})}^{2}$ = 1587600
