How to calculate number of ways?

We have been given word "COMBINE".

Number of vowels in the word=3

Total alphabets in the word=7

Number of ways=7[tex]C_{3}[/tex]

=7!/3!(7-3)!

=7!/3!4!

=7*6*5*4!/3!4!

=7*6*5/3*2*1

=35 ways

Hence there are 35 ways through which arrangement can occur such that all vowels are placed together in the word COMBINE.
