Seating Arrangement (Part-1)

Q:If there are 3 chairs on each side of square, then what are the total number of ways in which we can arrange 12 people around the square table?

Ans: Sides of square are equal so a person X can sit around table in 3 ways(Any of the 3 chairs can be put on one side) 

So X can sit either on left chair, in the middle or the right chair. We can arrange other people in 

(N-1)!  i.e. (12-1)!=11!

Hence ways to arrange 12 people in=

3*(12-1)!=3*11! ways

Shortcut: If there are N people to be assigned a square table with  (N/4) seats on one side of it

Total ways=(N/4)*(N-1)!

Q: In how many ways can we arrange 10 people around rectangular table such that there are 3 chairs on longer side and 2 on shorter side? 

Ans. So if we consider the first person X

X can either sit on longer side or shorter side. 

For longer side there are 3 possibilities =left, right and center

For shorter side there are 2 possibilities =left and right

Hence X can sit in 5 ways

Total arrangement =5*(10-1)!

                                      =5*9!

Shortcut:

If we have N people that are needed to be arranged around rectangular table with 'a' seats on the longer side and 'b' seats on shorter side. 

Total ways: (a+b) *(N-1)!

Q:There are 12 people needed to be arranged around an equilateral triangular table, which has 4 seats on each side. How many arrangements are possible? 

Ans:

Equilateral triangle has all sides equal so first person i.e. X may sit on any one side

Ways to sit : 4(any of 4 chairs) 

Hence assignment =4*(12-1)!=4*11!

Shortcut:

N people are arranged around equilateral trangle

Total arrangements:(N/3)*(N-1)!

Q: 11 people arranged around isosceles triangle which has 4 seats each on equal sides and 3 seats on other. How many arrangements are possible? 

Ans:

So  first person.i.e X can either sit on equal side or the unequal sides

For unequal side=3 ways

For equal side=4 ways

So total ways= 7*(11-1)!=7*(10)!

Shortcut:

N people that are around isosceles triangle with 'a' seats on each of equal side and 'b' seats on unequal side

=(a+b) *(N-1)!

Bright Thought-1

Successful people maintain a positive focus in life no matter what is going on around them. They stay focused on their past successes rather than their past failures, and on the next action steps they need to take to get them closer to the fulfillment of their goals rather than all the other distractions that life presents to them.
