Now,       words beginning with A = 5!
               words beginning with C = 5!
               words beginning with H = 5!
               words beginning with I = 5! 

 Word beginning with R  RACHIT = 1 

 Therefore,  Rank of the words 'RACHIT' in dictionary = 4 × 5! + 1 

= 4 × 120 + 1 = 480 + 1 = 481
