1.

There are n white and n black balls marked 1, 2, 3, …… n. The number of ways in which we canarrange these balls in a row so that neighbouring balls are of different colours are:-

Answer»

N!
(2n)!
`2(n!)^2 `
`((2n)!)/((n!)^2)`

SOLUTION :Case I: `W_1/1 B_1/2 W_2/3 B_2/4 W_3/5 B_3/6` ......`W_n B_n/(2n^(th)"place")` = n! x n!
Case II:
`B_1/1 W_1/2 B_2/3 W_2/4 B_3/5W_3/6` .....`B_n` `W_n/(2n^(th)"place")` =n! x n!
So number of WAYS =`2(n!)^2`
