Question

In how many different ways can the letters of the word coconut be arranged? Please explain how to do this to me.

Answer 1

if all the letters were different it would be 7! but since you have two repeats it is
\[\frac{7!}{2!\times 2!}\]

Answer 2

i am not sure that was an explanation or just an answer, but the point is that you cannot tell the two c's and two p's apart

Answer 3

i believe its just 7!

Answer 4

There are no p's in coconut :)
But I understand now, and the answer is not 7!, it is 1260, or 7!/4

Answer 5

so would the word lollipop be 8!/3! x 2! x 2!
