thus formed are arranged in dictionary order, then find the rank of the word PRISON.

Sol: The alphabetical order of the letters of the word PRISON is

The number of words that begin with I      = 5! = 120

The number of words that begin with N      = 5! = 120


The number of words that begin with O      = 5! = 120
The number of words that begin with P I      = 4! = 24
The number of words that begin with P N      = 4! = 24
The number of words that begin with P O      = 4! = 24
