Question

Miriam is visiting five friends in her neighborhood, Louise, Mike, Nicole, Oscar, and Pascal. In each arrangement below, the first initial of each person’s name represents that person’s position as he or she is visited by Miriam. Which shows all the outcomes for this event if she visits with Nicole first and Louise last? NMOPL, NOMPL, NPMOL NLMOP, NLOMP, NMLOP, NMOLP, NOMNP, NONMP NMOPL, NMPOL, NOPML, NOMPL, NPMOL, NPOML NLMOP, NMLOP, NOLMP

Answer 1

If N is first and L is last, then we just need to find all of the permutations for M, O, and P

with first letter M:       MOP     MPO

with first letter O:       OPM     OMP

with first letter P:        PMO     POM

Now, place the N in front and the L at the end of each permutation. There are 6 permutations in total:

          NMOPL              NMPOL

          NOPML              NOMPL

          NPMOL              NPOML

Answer 2

Answer:
