The letters of the word тАШCLIFTONтАЩ are placed at random in a row. What is the chance that two vowels come together?



Answer -

Given: The wordтАШCLIFTONтАЩ.

By using the formula,

P (E) = favourableoutcomes / total possible outcomes

In the randomarrangement of the alphabets of word тАЬCLIFTONтАЭ we have to find the probabilitythat vowels come together.

Total possibleoutcomes of arranging the alphabets are 7!

n (S) =7!

Let E be the eventthat vowels come together

Number of vowels inCLIFTON is I, O

Number of ways toarrange them where, (I, O) come together

n (E)= 6! ├Ч 2!

P (E) = n (E) / n (S)

= [6! ├Ч 2!] / 7!

= 2/7
