Answer 2

There are 60 ways to do so.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of vacant seats = 5

Number of passengers = 3

We need to find the number of ways that can be made sit on these seats.

Since there is an arrangement for the ways.

So, we will use "Permutation":

So, it becomes,

$^nP_r=^5P_3=60$

Hence, there are 60 ways to do so.
