A person invites a party of 10 friends at dinner and place so that 4 are on one round table and 6 on the other round table. Total number of ways in which he can arrange the guests is

Options

  1. A10!6!\frac{10!}{6!}
  2. B10!24\frac{10!}{24}
  3. C9!24\frac{9!}{24}
  4. DNone of these

Correct answer

B. 10!24\frac{10!}{24}

Step-by-step solution

Total person =10=10 Two groups are formed containing 4 and 6 persons. ∴\therefore Total ways of formation of groups =10!4!6!=\frac{10!}{4!6!} Now, 4 persons can be arranged on round table =(4−1)!=3!=(4-1)!=3! and 6 persons can be arranged on round table =(6−1)=(6-1) ! =5!∴=5!\therefore Total ways of arranging the guest =10!4!6!×3!×5!=10!24=\frac{10!}{4!6!} \times 3!\times 5!=\frac{10!}{24}
