Question

If you have a 5 letters A,B,C,D,E and you can put them in any order how many ways can you place them

Answer 1

The first letter can be any one of 5.  For each of those . . .
The second letter can be any one of the remaining 4.  For each of those . . .
The third letter can be any one of the remaining 3.  For each of those . . .
The fourth letter can be any one of the remaining 2.  For either of those . . .
The fifth letter is the last remaining one.

  Total number of possibilities = (5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1)  = 

                                                           120 ways to line them up.

Now, may I say that being a hater of school is not something that
makes you cool.  Maybe it does make you one of the crowd, but life
is not a war between you and school.  School is simply something that
a lot of grown-ups spend a lot of money on, and a lot of teachers spend
their whole life on, to make sure that a lot of kids won't go through their
whole life stupid.  You can learn everything you ever want to know there,
and it's all free.  That's a pretty good deal.
