Can you put the explanation of that? I actually want to know how you do it. Thank you

@Andrea, first, calculate how many ways to arrange each type of book individually. Each algebra book has 6! ways of being arranged. Each geometry book has 6! ways of being arranged. Each statistics book has 5! ways of being arranged. Now, there are three groups of books, so there are 3! ways of arranging them on the shelf. 6!*6!*5!*3! = 373248000
