Hello Student,

Please find the answer to your question

Out of guests half i.e. to be seated on side A and rest 9 on side B. Now out of 18 guests, 4 particular guests desire to sit – on one particular side say side A and other 3 on other side B. Out of rest 18 – 4 – 3 = 11 guests we can select 5 more for side A and rest 6 can be seated on side B. Selection of 5 out of 11 can be done in ¹¹ C₅ ways and 9 guests on each sides of table can be seated in 9! x 9! Ways. Thus there are total ¹¹ C₅ x 9! x 9! Arrangements.

Thanks

8 on side A and side B. In side A 4 particular are to be seated therefore its arrangement out of 8 is = 4!*5! (4! is internal arrangement). In the same way on side B 3 particular are to be seated therefore its arrangement out of 8 is = 3!*6! remaining 4 seats in A and 5 seats in B its arrangement out of 9 places is 9! also, this arrangement can be placed in two ways A placed before B and B placed before A. hence total arrangements are =2*4!*5!*3!*6!*9!
