How many three-letter arrangements can be made from the letters in MOUSEPAD if no letter can be used more than once and each arrangement is made up of a vowel between two consonants?

Vowels   A , E , O , U

 

Consonants   D M  P  S

 

Choose  any 1 of the 4 vowels  = C(4,1) =  4

 

Choose any 2 of the 4 consonants  and  permute them in 2 ways =   P (4,2)  =  12

 

Total arrangements =   4 * 12   =    48
