  1. In how many ways can the letter of the word ' civilization' be arranged ?
    1. 12! / 4!
    2. 12! / 4! -1
    3. 13! / 5! - 1
    4. None of these
Correct Option: B

There are 12 letters in the world 'civilization' of which four are i's and other are different letters.
∴ Total number of permutations = 12!/4!
But one word is civilization itself.
∴ Required number of rearrangements = 12!/4! - 1
