This discussion board is a place to discuss our Daily Challenges and the math and science related to those challenges. Explanations are more than just a solution — they should explain the steps and thinking strategies that you used to obtain the solution. Comments should further the discussion of math and science.

When posting on Brilliant:

  • Use the emojis to react to an explanation, whether you're congratulating a job well done , or just really confused .
  • Ask specific questions about the challenge or the steps in somebody's explanation. Well-posed questions can add a lot to the discussion, but posting "I don't understand!" doesn't help anyone.
  • Try to contribute something new to the discussion, whether it is an extension, generalization or other idea related to the challenge.
  • Stay on topic — we're all here to learn more about math and science, not to hear about your favorite get-rich-quick scheme or current world events.

Is the answer B? First you arrange A,E,O, (in that particular order) into 8 space, so 8C3. Then you arrange the final distinct 5 letters without restrictions in the last 5 spaces available, 5!. So 8C3*5!

actually,on my part,....i don't know what's the exact answer.....BUT YOUR DESCRIPTION REGARDING THE QUESTION IS SOUNDING TO BE RIGHT ALONG WITH THE ANSWER TOO....i too thought in the same way and got the answer (B) but also thought that there may be some faults in my thinking....here you are also supporting my thinking procedure....However keep in touch....to see whether others of the friends meet at the same point of argument.........:)

B.solution is:if we arrange a,e,o into 8 spaces in a particular order , we get 8c3 possible ways.then arrange the remaining numbers with no restriction,so 5! possible ways.so the answer is 8c3*5!
