Dear Sanchit Gupta

1st  person can leave at any of seven floors in 7 ways

2nd  person can leave at any of seven floors in 6 ways

3rd person can leave at any of seven floors in 5 ways

4th person can leave at any of seven floors in 4 ways

5th person can leave at any of seven floors in 3 ways

total ways =7*6*5*4*3 =2520
