Number of arrangements of beads = (12 - 1) !, but it is not mentioned that either it is clockwise or anti - clockwise .
So, required number of arrangements = [(12 - 1)! ] / 2 = 11 !/2
Total persons on the circular table
= 20 guests + 1 host = 21
They can be seated in (21 - 1) ! = 20 ! ways .
After fixing up one boy on the table, the remaining can be arranged in 4 ! ways, but boys and girls have to be alternate. There will be 5 places, one place each between two boys. These 5 place can be filled by 5 girls in 5 ! ways .
Hence, by the principle of multiplication, the required number of ways = 4 ! x 5 ! = 2880
First, we can select 12 beads out of 18 beads in 18C12 ways.
Now, these 12 beads can make a necklace in 11! / 2 ways as clockwise and anti-clockwise arrangements are same.
So, required number of ways = [ 18C12 .11! ] / 2!
= [18C6.11! ] / 2!
= [18 x 17 x 16 x 15 x 14 x 13 x 11! ] / [6 x 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 x 2!]
= [17 x 7 x 13! ] / 2!
= 119 x 13 !/ 2
Total number of ways = 4C3 x 4C2 = [4! / {3! x 1!}] x [4! /{2! x 2!}]
= (4 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1) / (2 x 2)
= 4 x 6
= 24
Since, particular player is always chosen. It means that 11 - 1 = 10 players are selected out of the remaining 15 - 1 = 14 players.
? Required number of ways = 14C10
= 14 ! / (10! x 4!)
= (14 x 13 x 12 x 11) / (4 x 3 x 2 x 1)
= 7 x 13 x 11
= 91 x 11
= 1001
Required number of triangles = 12C3 = (12 x 11 x 10) / 6 = 220
Hexagon has 6 sides .
? n = 6
? Required number of diagonals = 10C2 - n
= 6C2 - 6
= 6! / [2!(6 - 2)!] - 6 = 6! / (2!4!) - 6
= (6 x 5 x 4!) / (2 x 4!) - 6
= 15 - 6
= 9
Required number of straight lines
=nC2 - mC2 + 1
Here, n = 10, m = 5
= 10C2 - 5C2 + 1
= 45 - 10 + 1 = 36
Here, order is important, then the number of ways in which 12 different balls can be divided between two boys who receives 5 and 7 balls respectively, is = [12! / 5! 7! ] x 2! = 1584
