The rank of word pigeon is 656

GIVEN

A six-letter word - Pigeon

TO FIND

THE RANK OF THE GIVEN WORD.

SOLUTION

We can simply solve the above problem as under -

To find the Rank of the word - PIGEON in the dictionary, we will do the following steps -

In the word PIGEON, there are no repeating words.

arrange the letters in alphabetical order.

= E G I N O P

The possible combination of all the letters =

= 6! = 6×5×4×3×2×1 = 720

Let's find the number of words starting with the first letter - E

so, words starting with the letter E will be above P I G E O N.

So, if we fix E at the first position we have,

5! = 120 words

Similarly,

number of words starting with G = 120 words

number of words starting with I = 120 words

number of words starting with N = 120 words

number of words starting with O = 120 words

So, the total number of words that do not start with P and are above PIGEON = 120× 5 = 600

Now, The next letter P aligns with the required word. (PIGEON)

Fix the second letter alphabetically.

Number of words starting with PE = 4! = 24

Number of words starting with PG = 4! = 24

Now the next letter is I, which also aligns with our required word PIGEON.

LET'S FIX THE THIRD WORD ALPHABETICALLY,

Number of words starting with PIE = 3! = 6

THE NEXT LETTER IS G, WHICH ALSO ALIGNS WITH OUR REQUIRED WORD.

LET US FIX THE FOURTH WORD ALPHABETICALLY

The letter E also aligns with our word

The next letter combination will be - PIGENO

and, the last combination will be = PIGEON

RANK of the word PIGEON will be = 600+24+24+6+1+1

= 656.

Hence, the rank of the word PIGEON is 656
