Find the number of ways that 5 boys and 6 girls can stand in a row if no boy stands next to another boy












6












$begingroup$


The most straight-forward answer is to arrange 6 girls and put 5 boys in the remaining seven slots by order:



$$square g square g square g square g square g square gsquare$$
Therefore, we come up with:



$$6!cdot 7P5=1space 814space 400$$



However, I notice that if you take one of the girls away (let's label her as $^*$), we have:



$$^*square^*g^*square^*g^*square^*g^*square^*g^*square^*g^*square^*$$



We see that no matter where girl$^*$ stands, the boys will still not stand next to each others. Now we can arrange 5 girls and put all the boys in and put girl$^*$ in the 12 places by order:
$$5!cdot6P5cdot12=1space036space800$$



Let's say we have 5 boys and 5 girls, we then have two possible arrangements:
$$gspace bspace gspace bspace gspace bspace gspace bspace gspace b + bspace gspace bspace gspace bspace gspace bspace gspace bspace g$$



Now, we add in girl$^*$. Here we have 2 different ways of arranging 5 boys and 5 girls and we are left with six slots for girl$^*$ in each case:



$$^*gspace ^*bspace ^*gspace ^*bspace ^*gspace ^*bspace ^*gspace ^*bspace ^*gspace ^*b ^*+ ^*bspace ^*gspace ^*bspace ^*gspace ^*bspace ^*gspace ^*bspace ^*gspace ^*bspace ^*g ^*$$
In which we have:
$$2(5!)^2cdot6=172space800$$



So which is right? Is there anything wrong with each logic?



Thank you.

          Your first computation is correct.



          The latter two computations undercount because they start off by taking one of the girls away. Let's say they always take girl #1 away.



          Now if we number the girls, those solutions can contain as an example $1 2 b 3 b 4 b 5 b 6b$. But they can not contain $1b2b34b5b6b$. We've lost the ability to have two girls next to eachother without involving girl #1.

          In the last one you're obviously leaving some out, which could be gotten by swapping some of bg combinations in either sum.



          In the second, also, you're not counting certain arrangements, which could be gotten by, again, swapping at least some bg combinations.



          The right one is the first.

            You are on the right track with thinking that there are 7 possible slots with 5 boys to be arranged into those slots. This is a combination problem with can be treated as a 7 choose 5 or a $7 choose 5$.

            A $7 choose 5$ is calculated as
            $$
            frac{7!}{5!*(7-5)!} = 21
            $$
            Therefore there are 21 combinations in which the boys could be arranged.



            I have also used an excel spreadsheet to show the possible ways that they could be arranged which ends up equaling 21.



            Picture of how the boys and girls could be arranged in 21 combinations

              My answer is predicated that this is a combination problem, not a permutation problem. As they are described as boys and girls, they are likely interchangeable and this is a combination. If the question was how many ways can Tom, Dick, Harry, Sam, and Bob be arranged, that would be a different question with a much larger answer.

            I wanted to know why $12b3b4b5b6b$ is possible but then $1b2b34b5b6b$ (no b between 3 and 4) is not counted in the second case. According to you when one of the girls stands next to another, the question changed?

            In the last one you're obviously leaving some out, which could be gotten by swapping some of bg combinations in either sum.



            In the second, also, you're not counting certain arrangements, which could be gotten by, again, swapping at least some bg combinations.



            The right one is the first.

                    You are on the right track with thinking that there are 7 possible slots with 5 boys to be arranged into those slots. This is a combination problem with can be treated as a 7 choose 5 or a $7 choose 5$.

                    A $7 choose 5$ is calculated as
                    $$
                    frac{7!}{5!*(7-5)!} = 21
                    $$
                    Therefore there are 21 combinations in which the boys could be arranged.



                    I have also used an excel spreadsheet to show the possible ways that they could be arranged which ends up equaling 21.

                      My answer is predicated that this is a combination problem, not a permutation problem. As they are described as boys and girls, they are likely interchangeable and this is a combination. If the question was how many ways can Tom, Dick, Harry, Sam, and Bob be arranged, that would be a different question with a much larger answer.

                    A CLEAN and SIMPLE way to add appendices to Table of Contents and bookmarks

                    Image
                    0 I found a lot of questions abount appendices and ToC. Many users want appendices to be grouped in an Appendix part, however some problems arise with ToC, hyperref, PDF viewer bookmarks, and so on. There are different solutions which require extra packages, command patching and other extra code, however none of them satisfies me. I almost found an easy way to accomplish a good result, where appendices are added to bookmarks in the right way and hyperref links point to the right page. However, the number of the "Appendix" part page is wrong (it's the number of appendix A). Is there any EASY way to fix that? This is a MWE: documentclass{book} usepackage[nottoc,notlot,notlof]{tocbibind} usepackage{hyperref} begin{document} frontmatter tableofcontents mainmatter part{First} chapter{...
