Find the probability that in a random arrangement of the letters of the word ‘SOCIAL’ vowels come together

given: word “SOCIAL”

formula:


In the random arrangement of the alphabets of word “SOCIAL” we have to find the probability that vowels come together


total possible outcomes of arranging the alphabets are 6!


therefore n(S)=6!


let E be the event that vowels come together


number of vowels in SOCIAL is A, I, O


therefore, number of ways to arrange them so (A, I, O) come together


n(E)= 4! × 3!
