This word has 7 letters, out of which 4 are consonants and 3 are vowels. The vowels have to occupy three contiguous positions. This triad can be arranged in 3! ways like this: we can place 3 vowels in first place, 2 in second place and 1 in the third place, giving 3 × 2 × 1 = 6 permutations. Next, we have to arrange the 4 consonants and the triad treated as one letter, giving 5! = 120 possibilities. So the total possibilities are 6 × 120 = 720.
