Leena is arranging 3 different books in a row on a shelf. Create a sample space for the arrangement of a detective story (D), a mystery story (M), and a comic book (C). Source

There are 6 DIFFERENT POSSIBLE arrangements as obtained using the factorial method and they are :

DMC, CMD, DCM, MDC, CDM, MCD

Given :

DETECTIVE STORY = D

MYSTERY STORY = M

COMIC BOOK = C

To use the factorial method, we find the factorial value of the number of books to be arranged

Number of different possible arrangements = (number of books)!

Number of books = 3

Hence, 3! = 3 * 2 * 1 = 6 ways

The sample space :

DMC

CMD

DCM

MDC

CDM

MCD

THEREFORE, there are 6 different samples on the SAMPLE SPACE.
