Question
If the letters of the word PLAYERS be arranged at
random, what is the probability that there are exactly five letters between P and S? ÂSolution
S = 7! = 7 × 5 × 4 × 3 × 2 × 1 = 5040 Let E= event of getting exactly fiveletters between P and S n(E) = 5! = 120 ∴ P (E) = (n(E))/(n(S)) = (120 )/5040 =  1/42
