(C) The word $ARTICLE$ has $7$ distinct letters: $A, R, T, I, C, L, E$.There are $3$ vowels $(A, I, E)$ and $4$ consonants $(R, T, C, L)$.In a $7$-letter word,the positions are $1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7$. The even positions are $2, 4, 6$ (total $3$ places).The $3$ vowels can be arranged in these $3$ even places in $^3P_3 = 3! = 6$ ways.The remaining $4$ consonants can be arranged in the remaining $4$ odd positions $(1, 3, 5, 7)$ in $^4P_4 = 4! = 24$ ways.Total number of words = $3! 	imes 4! = 6 	imes 24 = 144$.

The number of words that can be formed out of the letters of the word $ARTICLE$ so that the vowels occupy even places is
