In how many ways can the letters of the word PERMUTATIONS be arranged if there are always four letters between P & S?

when there will be only four letters in between P & S
 
then we can arrange P & S at this particular distance 14 times.
 
And for the remaining alphabets no. of permutations is (10! / 2!)
 
And thus total No. of permutations will be = (10! / 2! ) * 14
                                                            = 25401600
