3) In how many ways can a student and 8 Indian 4 American and 4 English man has can be set seated in a row so that all person of the same nationality sit together?

 A) 3!8!      B) 3!4!8!4!      C) 4!     D)8!4!4!

Answer-
8 Indians take take their seats in 8! ways 4
4 Americans take their seats in 4! ways 4
4 English man take their seats 4! ways 4
Three groups English,

Americans, and Englishmen can be permuted in 3! ways
Required number= `3! \times 8! \times 4! \times 4!`

4) In how many ways can 10 examination papers be arranged so that the best and the worst paper never come together?

A)9 x 8!      B)8 x 8!   C) 9×9!     D)8×9!

Answer-

D)  suppose, best and worst paper come together, 2 (best+worst)=1 unit
now we have with us (10-2)=8 papers
now, 8 papers+1 papers = 9 papers
arranging 9 papers = 9!

Arrangement where worst and best paper come together = 9! `\times` 2!
Total permutation of 10 papers = 10!
Total arrangement where best and worst paper never come together
=10! - 9!2!  
=10.9! - 9!2!
=9!(10-2)
=9! `\times` 8
