Answer:

2688

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the colours be A B and C      

There are 3!=6 possible variations on which colour goes with which letter

Now the house numbers can be 5,2 and 1 OR   4,3,1

There can be no other combination.

so we have:

6([tex]\frac{8!}{5!2!}[/tex] + [tex]\frac{8!}{4!3!}[/tex] ) = 6 (168 + 280) = 2688 possible combination.
