Same here.. I gave a Veritas test today and the quanta was piece of cake.. I am sure the real think will be a little more difficult... as as other users mentioned... I could not agree with some of their CR answers even after reading the explanation provided. Even the UI was not great.

PAB2706, I am also getting 350 :roll:

Total Arrangements = 8! / (3!*2!*3!) = 560

When 2 C's are considered 1 = 7! / (3!*2!*2!) = 210
(The above also includes when all 3 C's are together...)

So total cases = 560-210 = 350 ??

Agree with Doofus.

|X| + |y| = 10

So, when x = 0
|Y|=10 Which implies Y = +10, -10

Similarly for X. Gives you the fours coordinates of the square.
