How many different letter arrangement can be made from the 11 letters of MISSISSIPPI?
(But using COMBINATION not the different permutation method)
I saw an answer and it says:
(combination of 1 out of 11)*(combination of 4 out of 10)*(combination of 4 out of 6) *(combination of 2 out of 2)
What does combination exactly mean, and in what way was it used here?
I mean if we don't want same words to appear, what will this have to do with taking say 4 Ss out of the left 10?
Thanks in advance.
