I want to find out how many ways we can arrange these ships on this field. I just have no idea how to go about solving this. So I bring it to the Pros!
The board is an 8 by 8 Board. There are 5 pieces.
We have:
- 1x 5 box ship
- 1x 4 box ship
- 2x 3 box ship
- 1x 2 box ship.
The ships cannot overlap one another, and each item can be placed either horizontally or vertically.
How can we go about figuring this out?
