I'm not very mathematical.
I just wrote it down. So.. if it had to start with F, I wrote all of the possibilities to come after that, starting with the letter A:
If N was the next letter after A, for example, there are only 2 letters that could follow that, and therefore, only two words that could start F-A-N (hopefully that makes sense!). So...
FANZR
FANRZ
Same with FAZ:
FAZNR
FAZRN
And so on. So there would be 6 possibilities starting with FA
FANZR
FANRZ
FAZNR
FAZRN
FARZN
FARNZ
Since there are 6 possibilites with each of the 4 different letters to immediately follow F...
6 x 4 = 24. I guess.
