Solution

To calculate the number of anagrams for the word 'accommodate', we need to use the formula for permutations of a multiset:

n! / (r1! * r2! * ... * rk!)

where:

  • n is the total number of letters,
  • r1, r2, ..., rk are the numbers of each individual letter.

The word 'accommodate' has 10 letters in total.

  • 'a' and 'o' each appear twice,
  • 'c' and 'm' each appear twice,
  • and the letters 'd', 't', and 'e' each appear once.

So, we substitute these values into the formula:

10! / (2! * 2! * 2! * 2! * 1! * 1! * 1!)

Calculating this gives us the total number of anagrams for 'accommodate'.
