There are therefore 609638400 different ways to arrange eight men and five women in a line so that no two women are positioned adjacent to one another.
The basic counting principle is a method for keeping track of all the potential outcomes in a situation. It states that there are n*m ways to carry out both of these activities if there are n ways to carry out one action and m ways to carry out another action after that.
Here,
Number of ways men can stand,
=8!
=40320 ways
Number of ways women are standing,
=9P5
As shown in the image,
=15120 ways
For arranging both of them,
=40320*15120
=609638400 ways
So there is 609638400 ways of arranging eight men and five women to stand in a line so that no two women stand right next to each other.
