OpenStudy (zehanz):

You have 6 letters. The letter that will be the first one of your word can be chosen in 6 ways, The next letter in 5 ways. That is 6*5 already. Go on with the other letters, to get 6*5*4*3*2*1=720. But: there are 2 letters O. This means, everytime you switch these two, there is the same word. So we counted twice as much as there really are. so the answer is 720/2=360

6!/2!=360

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@RajshikharGupta: It is better to explain than go just give an answer IMO...
