we have following letters:  AA,TT,INKUR    to form a 4 letter word, we have  following cases:  xxyy ⇒((4!)/(2!2!))=6 ways  xxyz ⇒2×C_2 ^6 ×((4!)/(2!))=360 ways  xyzw ⇒C_4 ^7 ×4!=840 ways  ⇒total 6+360+840=1206

$${we}\:{have}\:{following}\:{letters}: \\ $$$${AA},{TT},{INKUR} \\ $$$$ \\ $$$${to}\:{form}\:{a}\:\mathrm{4}\:{letter}\:{word},\:{we}\:{have} \\ $$$${following}\:{cases}: \\ $$$${xxyy}\:\Rightarrow\frac{\mathrm{4}!}{\mathrm{2}!\mathrm{2}!}=\mathrm{6}\:{ways} \\ $$$${xxyz}\:\Rightarrow\mathrm{2}×{C}_{\mathrm{2}} ^{\mathrm{6}} ×\frac{\mathrm{4}!}{\mathrm{2}!}=\mathrm{360}\:{ways} \\ $$$${xyzw}\:\Rightarrow{C}_{\mathrm{4}} ^{\mathrm{7}} ×\mathrm{4}!=\mathrm{840}\:{ways} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow{total}\:\mathrm{6}+\mathrm{360}+\mathrm{840}=\mathrm{1206} \\ $$
