Put C,D and E as one unit
∴ Total people to be selected = 10 = 9 ppl + one group of 3
Similarly total no ppl= n-3+1 = n-(C,D,E) + a group of 3 ppl [Note:Here 3 ppl are replaced by one group of 3 ppl ∴ there are counted as one and not 3]

Selection:n-3+1 C10 = n-2C10

Test: Permutations and Combinations- 4 - Question 25

 In how many ways 6 men and 6 women sit at a round table so that no two men are together?

Detailed Solution for Test: Permutations and Combinations- 4 - Question 25

First, we sit the men in an order that there is a place vacant between two men. Then, number of ways sitting 6 men = (6 – 1)! = 5!

Now a number of ways sitting 6 women in the vacant places = 6!

Number of permutations = (6 – 1)! = 5!

Now, the number of ways sitting 6 women in the vacant place = 6!

Number of permutaions = 5! × 6! 

Test: Permutations and Combinations- 4 - Question 26

Test: Permutations and Combinations- 4 - Question 27

In how many ways 4 men and 3 women are arranged at a round table if the women always sit tohether?

Detailed Solution for Test: Permutations and Combinations- 4 - Question 27

If all three women always sit together

We can club the 3 women in one group and the number of arrangements of this group will be 3!

Now, 4 men and 1 group of women can be arranged arround a round table =(5−1)!

Hence, Total arrangements =4!3!=144.

Test: Permutations and Combinations- 4 - Question 28

Test: Permutations and Combinations- 4 - Question 29

 A family comprised of an old man, 6 adults and 4 children is to be seated is a row with the condition that the children would occupy both the ends and never occupy either side of the old man. How many sitting arrangements are possible?

Detailed Solution for Test: Permutations and Combinations- 4 - Question 29

There are 11 persons and 11 seats.

Select 2 children(4C2 ways).
These two children can be seated in the side seats in 2! ways.

The old man can occupy any of the 7 middle seats(7 ways).
(note that he cannot occupy 2nd and 10th seat because these seats are near to the children sitting in the side seats)

3 seats are occupied and 8 seats are remaining. In these 8 seats, 2 seats will be near to the old man in which children cannot seat. Thus 6 seats are remaining in which 2 children can be seated. This can be done in 6P2 ways.

5 persons are seated now.  Remaining 6 persons can be arranged in the remaining 6 seats in 6! ways.

Therefore, required number of ways
= 4C2 × 2! × 7 × 6P2 ×  6!
= 6 × 2 × 7 × 30 × 720
= 1814400
