First seat: 14 candidates to seat
Second seat: 13 candidates to seat
Third seat : 12 candidates
4th seat: 11 candidates
5th seat: 10 candidates
6th seat: 9 candidates

Number of different variations: 14*13*12*11*10*9 = 2,162,160 different ways,


Observe that is 14P6 = 14! / (14-6)! = 14! / 8! = 14*13*12*11*10*9*8! / 8! =

= 14*13*12*11*10*9

Answer: 2,162,160
