In how many ways can 24 persons be seated round a table, if there are 13 sets? |
Answer» In case of circular table, the clockwise and anti-clockwise order are different, the required number of circular permutations=`(.^(24)P_(13))/(13)=(24!)/(13xx11!)` `impliesn!=nxx`number of circular arrangements of n different things `implies`Number of circular arrangements of n different things `=(n!)/(n)=(n-1)!` Hence, the number of circular permutations of n different things taken all at a time is (n-1)!, if clockwise and anti-clockwise orders are taken as different. |
