Answer:3!=3*2*1=6 OR 1,03,680

Step-by-step explanation:

first lets club together the books of the same subjects now we have 3 groups-maths, english, science

these 3 groups have to be arranged in three places so it is 3!

if every book is different from each other then we can arrange books in all the groups

for maths we have 5 books and these can be arranged in 5! ways

for science we have 4 books which can be arranged in 4! ways

for english we have 3 books which can be arranged in 3! ways

as all these are necessary for an arrangement to form we will multiply all no. of ways i.e. 3! * 5! * 4! * 3!=6*120*24*6= 1,03,680

please mark the brainliest if it is useful

Given,

Total types of books = 3

Total mathematics books = 5

Total science books = 4

Total english books = 3

To Find,

In how many ways given books can be arranged =?

Solution,

The number of ways to arrange 5 mathematics books = 5!

The number of ways to arrange 5 mathematics books = 120 ways

The number of ways to arrange 4 science books = 4!

The number of ways to arrange 4 science books = 24 ways

The number of ways to arrange 3 english books = 3!

The number of ways to arrange 3 english books = 6 ways

The number of ways to arrange books of 3 different subjects = 3!

The number of ways to arrange books of 3 different subjects = 6 ways

Total ways to arrange all books such that books of the same subject are kept together = 120 * 24 * 6 * 6 ways

Total ways to arrange all books such that books of the same subject are kept together = 103680 ways

Hence, we can arrange 5 mathematics books, 4 science books, and 3 english books on a shelf such that books of the same subject are kept together in 103680 ways.
