 Bundle Method
(Keeping things together)
Example A Library has 3 Mathematics, 2 Physics and 5 Chemistry books which
are to be arranged on a shelf. In how many ways these can be
arranged such that all books of same subject are together.
Considering:
1. Books of same subject are identical.
2. Books of same subject are also distinct.
Example A Library has 3 Mathematics, 2 Physics and 5 Chemistry books which
are to be arranged on a shelf. In how many ways these can be
arranged such that Mathematics books are together. Considering:
1. Books of same subject are identical.
2. Books of same subject are also distinct.
Example In how many ways the letters of the word IMAGINATION be
arranged such that
1. Both A’s are together
2. Both A’s, Both N’s and All three I’s are together
3. All vowels are together
4. All vowels are together and all consonants are together
 Gap Method
(Keeping things separate)
Example A Library has 3 Mathematics, 2 Physics and 5 Chemistry books which
are to be arranged on a shelf. In how many ways these can be
arranged such that Mathematics books are separate. Considering:
1. Books of same subject are identical.
2. Books of same subject are also distinct.
Example In how many ways the letters of the word IMAGINATION be arranged such
that
1. Both A’s are separate
2. No two I’s are together
3. Vowels and consonants are alternate
4. Two I’s are together but separated from third I.
Example In how many ways 5 boys and 3 girls stand in a queue such that
1. No two girls are together.
2. Exactly two girls are together.
Example Let n be the number of ways in which 5 boys and 5 girls can stand in
a queue in such a way that all the girls stand consecutively in the
queue. Let m be the number of ways in which 5 boys and 5 girls can
stand in a queue in such a ways that exactly four girls stand
consecutively in the queue. Then the value of m/n is
