Find the number of words formed by permuting all the letters of the following words: PAKISTAN.

Answer

There are 8 letters in the word 'PAKISTAN' out of which 2 are A'S, and the rest are all distinct. So, the total number of words $=\frac{8!}{2!\ }$ $=\frac{8\times7\times6\times5\times4\times3\times2!}{2!}$ $=8\times7\times6\times5\times4\times3$ $=20160$
