There are 2+4+2+5 = 13 crayons in total.

The 13 crayons can be placed on a line in 13! = 6227020800.

But there are duplicate crayons offcourse. So, lets adjust our answer for the removing the duplicate crayons.

So, the actual number of ways this can be 13!/(2!4!2!5!)

= 6227020800/11520

= 540540

Answer: 540,540
