To find: number of arrangements without changing the relative position
The following table shows where the vowels and consonants can be placed
Consonants can be placed in the blank places
There are 3 spaces for vowels
There are 3 vowels out of which 2 are alike
Vowels can be placed in \(\frac{3!}{2!}\) = 3 ways
There are 4 consonants, and they can be placed in = 4! = 24 ways
⇒ Total number of arrangements = 24 x 3 = 72 ways
72 arrangements can be made
