Answer:
There are 60 permutations.
Step-by-step explanation:
Arrangements formula:
The number of possible arrangements of n elements is given by:
[tex]A_n = n![/tex]
With repetition:
For each element that repeats, with [tex]n_1, n_2, ..., n_n[/tex] times, the formula is:
[tex]A_n^{n_1,n_2,...,n_n} = \frac{n!}{n_1!n_2!...n_n}[/tex]
In this question:
Apple has 5 letters.
P appears two times. So
[tex]A _5^{2} = \frac{5!}{2!} = 60[/tex]
There are 60 permutations.
