Question 13 Marks
How many $5$ digit numbers can be formed using all the digits $2, 5, 0, 7$ and $9$ ?
Answer
If 5 digit numbers are to be formed using all the digits $2,5,0,7,9$ then digit $0$ should not be in the first place.
Therefore, excluding digit $0$ , one of the four digits can be placed in the first place in ${ }^{4} P_{1}$ ways.
Now, after arranging one digit from $2,5,7$ or $9$ in the first place, remaining $4$ digits (including $0$ ) can be arranged in remaining $4$ places in ${ }^{4} \mathrm{P}_{4}$ ways.
$ \therefore \text { Total Permutations } ={ }^{4} \mathrm{P}_{1} \times{ }^{4} \mathrm{P}_{4}$
$ =4 \times 4 !$
$ =4 \times 24$

In how many ways can $3$ boys and $2$ girls be arranged in a row such that,
$(i)$ both the girls remain together ?
$(ii)$ boys and girls are alternately arranged ?
$(iii)$ all the three boys remain together ?
Answer$3$ boys and $2$ girls are to be arranged in a row.
$(i)$ Both the girls remain together :
$BBB$ $GG \rightarrow 2P_2$
$3 + 1 \rightarrow 4P_4$
$∴$ Total permutations in which both the girls remain together $= 4P_4 x 2P_2 = 4! x 2! = 24 x 2 = 48$
$(ii)$ Boys and girls are alternatively arranged :
$\therefore $ Total permutations in which boys and girls are alternatively arranged $= 3P_3 x 2P_2 = 3! x 2! = 6 x 2 = 12$
$(iii)$ All the there boys remain gether :
$BBB$ $GG \rightarrow 3P_3$
$1 + 2 \rightarrow 3P_3$
$\therefore$ Total permutations in which all the the three boys remain to gether $= 3P_3 x 3P_3 = 3! x 3! = 6 x 6 = 36$

$B \ G \ B \ G \ B \ G \ B \ G \ Or \ G \ B \ G \ B \ G \ B \ G \ B$ Thus, total number of ways of arrangement
$=4!\times 4!=24 \times 24=576 \text { OR } 4!\times 4!=24 \times 24=576$
Hence, the total number of ways of arranging $4$ boys and $4$ girls in a row, so that two boys and two girls do not appear together.
