Question

In how many ways can 3 boys and 3 girls sit in a row if the boys and girls are each to sit together?

Answer 1

The boys and girls are each to sit together, and there are 3 boys and 3 girls. The total number of ways to arrange them is 36.

Step-by-step explanation:

The boys and girls are each to sit together, meaning that the boys should sit together in one group and the girls should sit together in another group. We can consider these two groups as two separate entities.

The number of ways to arrange the boys within their group is 3! (3 factorial), because there are 3 boys. Similarly, the number of ways to arrange the girls within their group is also 3!. Since these two groups can be arranged independently of each other, the total number of ways to arrange the boys and girls is 3! * 3! = 6 * 6 = 36.

Answer 2

the answer would be 36 because theres 6 people and 6 seats so 6*6 = 36
