Answer:
In 192 ways six people can be seated in a six-seater car.
Step-by-step explanation:
Points to remember while solving the question:
- There are 6 people in total
- Only 2 people know how to drive
- The person who knows driving cannot sit together
- Only someone who knows driving can sit in the driver’s seat
To find,
The number of ways the six people can be seated.
Calculation,
Step(1): As there are 2 people who can sit in the driver's seat, so the number of possibilities for the driver's seat is TWO.
Step(2): As the person who knows driving cannot sit together, the seat in the front of the car must be occupied by the remaining 4 people who don't know driving. And that can be done in 4C1 ways = FOUR.
Step(3): Now, the remaining people can occupy the back seats of the car in 4 × 3 × 2 × 1 ways = 24. Because we will let one person sit in any one back seat, then for remaining 3 people, and for 2 people.
Hence, the total number of ways is 2 × 4 × 24 = 192 ways.
Therefore, in 192 ways six people can be seated in a six-seater car.
