Mississippi
let the 4 i be one group
and there are 8 blanks
so we can arrange them in 8! ways
and 4i can be arranged in 4! ways
so
totally 8!*4!ways we can arrange

siddharthsinghsid: thanks for ur response...but this is not right ans...there is repeatition of s and p.So the right ans is 8!/4! .2!×4!

priyabachala: as you not mentioned Repetation is allowed

priyabachala: so

siddharthsinghsid: okk I accept that I had not mentioned that repeatition is allowed but ur answer is not right also now...bcoz if repetition is not allowed then then the answer will be 4!.3!

priyabachala: no

siddharthsinghsid: why no...the letters of M ,S and P are taken only once if repetition is not allowed

priyabachala: no
