Answer»

In a given, word, [Hint : Vowels – A, E, I, O U]

number of vowels is 3

number of consonants is 5

C C V V C C C V

Since the relative positions of the vowels and consonants are not disturbed, the 3 vowels can be arranged in their relative positions in 3! ways and the 5 consonants can be arranged in their relative positions in 5! ways.

∴ The number of required arrangements = (3!) (5!) = (6) (120) = 720.
