Studdy Solution
For vowels to be in alphabetical order, fix the order of vowels as A, E, O.
- The number of ways to arrange the consonants is 3!3!.
Thus, the total number of arrangements is 3!3!.
Now, let's evaluate each option:
A. Number of arrangements in which vowels and consonants are alternate is 2×3!×3!2 \times 3! \times 3!. This is correct. B. Number of arrangements in which vowels are alternate is 2×3!×3!2 \times 3! \times 3!. This is correct. C. Number of arrangements in which consonants come before vowels is 3!×3!3! \times 3!. This is correct. D. Number of arrangements in which vowels are in alphabetical order is 3!3!. This is incorrect; it should be 3!3!, not 6!3!\frac{6!}{3!}.
Correct answers: A, B, C.
