In the following question, two statements are numbered as A and B. On solving these statements we get quantities A and B respectively. Solve for the both quantities and chose the correct option. Quantity A: In how many different ways can the letters of the word JUMBLE be arranged? Quantity B: In how many different ways can the letters of the word BOTTLE be arranged? Correct Answer Quantity A > Quantity B
Solving for Quantity A -
The word JUMBLE consist 6 distinct letters
Number of arrangement = 6! = 6 × 5 × 4 × 3 × 2 × 1 = 720
Solving for Quantity B -
The word BOTTLE consists of 6 letters in which letter T repeats.
Number of arrangement possible = 6!/2! = (6 × 5 × 4 × 3 × 2 × 1)/(2 × 1) = 360
∴ Quantity A > Quantity B
