Question

In how many different ways can the letters of the word 'JUDGE' be arranged in such a way that the vowels always come together?

• A. 48
• B. 124
• C. 120
• D. 160
• E. None of these

Answer 1

The correct option is A 48

The word 'JUDGE' has 5 letters in which `JDG' are consonants and `UE' are vowels. On keeping vowels together, we get JDG (UE)
$\therefore$ Number of arrangements = 4! $\times$ 2 !
$=4\times 3\times 2\times 2$
= 48
