Charlotte Nash · Answer 2

If N is first and L is last, then we just need to find all of the permutations for M, O, and P

with first letter M: MOP MPO

with first letter O: OPM OMP

with first letter P: PMO POM

Now, place the N in front and the L at the end of each permutation. There are 6 permutations in total:

NMOPL NMPOL

NOPML NOMPL

NPMOL NPOML
