Question

If all the letters of word sanjay be arranged as in a dictionary what is the 50th word?

Answer 1

Answer:

Rank of the word sanjay is 360.

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to make the word in alphabetical order which will be A,A,J,N,S,Y.

Hence, the probability of starting with A = A, AJNSY = 5!/1! = 120.

The probability of starting with J = J,  AANSY = 5!/2! = 60.

The probability of starting with N = N, AAJSY = 5!/2! = 60.

The probability of starting with S = S, AANJY = 5!/2! = 60.

The probability of starting with Y = Y, AANJS = 5!/2! = 60.

So, the rank of the word is 120+ 60*4 = 360. Hence finding the rank of 50th word is not possible.
