Find the number of strings that can be made using all letters of the word THING. If these words are written as in a dictionary, what will be the 85th string?

योग

उत्तर

The given word is THING

Arranging the letters of the word in the dictionary order

We have G, H, I, N, T

The number of strings that can be made using all the letters T, H, I, N, G of the word

THING is = 5! = 120

The number of words beginning with G = 4!

The number of words beginning with H = 4!

The number of words beginning with I = 4!

Number of words so far formed = 4! + 4! + 4!

= 24 + 24 + 24

= 72 words

As the required word is in the 85th position

The required word must begin with N

Number of words beginning with NG = 3!

A number of words beginning with NH = 3!

Total number of words so far formed

= 72 + 3! + 3!

= 72 + 6 + 6

= 84 words

The next string is the required string.

It should begin with NI and its first word beginning with NI which is NIGHT

∴ 85th strings are NIGHT.
