In the word "gallipolis"

there are 10 letters (n =

10).

"l" appears 3 times (n1 =

3).

"i" appears 2 times (n2 =

2).

And 5 letters appear once (n3 =1, n4 =

1, n5 =1, n6 =1, n7 =1)

The number of permutations that can be made with these 10 letters is;

P =

n!/(n1!n2!n3!n4!n5!n6!n7!) =

10!/(3!∙2!∙1!∙1!∙1!∙1!∙1!) =

Find the number of distinguishable permutations of the letters in the word hippopotamus?

First of all, find the total number of not-necessarily distinguishable permutations. There are 12 letters in hippopotamus, so use 12! (12 factorial), which is equal to 12 x 11x 10 x9 x8 x7 x6 x5 x4 x3 x2 x1. 12! = 479001600.Then count the of each letter and calculate how many permutations of each letter can be made. For example, here is 1 h, so there is 1 permutation of 1 h.H 1I 1P 60 2T 1A 1M 1U 1S 1Multiply these numbers together. 1 x1 x6 x2 x1 x1 x1 x1 x1 = 12Divide 12! by this number. 479001600 / 12 = 39,916,800 Distinguishable Permutations.

How many license plates can be made using three digits and three letters without repetition and alternating letters and digits?

If it alternates and you start with a letter, then there are 11,232,000 permutations. Then if you start with a number and alternate, there are another 11,232,000 permutations, for a total of 22,464,000 permutations. If you exclude the letters I, S, B, and O (because they look kind-of like 1, 5, 8, & 0 - kind-of important on license plates) then you are down to 6,652,800 & 13,305,600 respectively.
