Respuesta :
there are 6 letters
6 x 5 x 4 x3 x 2= 720
there are 2 P's
so 720/2 = 360
there are 360 possible arrangements
Answer: 360
Step-by-step explanation:
Given word : PURPLE
The number of letters in the word (n)=6
Since P is repeating two times in the given word.
Therefore, the number of possible arrangements of the letters in the word "PURPLE"
[tex]=\frac{6!}{2!}\\\\=\frac{6\times5\times4\times3\times2\times1}{2}\\\\=\frac{720}{2}\\\\=360[/tex]
Hence, there are 360 different arrangements of the letters in the word "PURPLE" .
