Answer #1

Number of permutations possible in a way that the order is maintained for numbers and the order is maintained for letters = = 3003

Order for numbers is maintained means the numbers can be arranged in ascending order only i e. 1,a,2,3,4,b,5,6,7,c,8

Order for letter is maintained means the letters can be arranged only such that the alphabets (from a-z) always occurs first

We have 8 + 6 = 14 characters

These 14 characters needs to be placed in 14 spots

We select any of the 8 spots out of these 14 and place the numbers 1-8 in the ascending order of the spots.
