In how many different ways can the letters of the word 'LEADING' be arranged in such a way that the vowels always come together?
Answer: 720
Explanation
720
The word 'LEADING' has 7 different letters.
When the vowels EAI are always together, they can be supposed to form one letter.
Then, we have to arrange the letters LNDG (EAI).
Now, 5 (4 + 1 = 5) letters can be arranged in 5! = 120 ways.
The vowels (EAI) can be arranged among themselves in 3! = 6 ways.
Therefore Required number of ways = (120 x 6) = 720
