Permutations!!

Mathematics

Advocard [28]3 years ago

<span>Since the problem specifically stated that the people gather around the table, therefore we assume a circular table hence a circular formation of gathering.  Since the arrangement is important therefore we use the permutation.  </span>

nPr = n! / (n – r)!

<span>However before we proceed with our calculation we MUST first affix a reference point since the formation is circle. Imagine that the reference point is the 1st point made when you draw a circle, so it is the both the 0 degrees and the 360 degrees.</span>

Let us say that one of the actors is the reference point. So there are now only 8 actors which places can be interchanged. Since all actors have to sit together, hence the arrangements are:

8P8 = 8! / (8 – 8)! = 40,320

Now since there are 13 total people, therefore the arrangements of the other 4 people are:

4P4 = 4! / (4 – 4)! = 24

 

We multiply all to get the total number of arrangements:

<span>Total arrangements = 40320 * 24 * 1                        (1 is the reference point)</span>

<span>Total arrangements = 967,680</span>

To solve this, you divide 116 by four, this gets you 29. The loser got 29 votes. Then you subtract 116-29 which gives you 87. That is how many votes the winner received. Hope this helps
