Time management is very much important in IIT JAM. The eduncle test series for IIT JAM Mathematical Statistics helped me a lot in this portion. I am very thankful to the test series I bought from eduncle.

As we know that no. of ways 'n' people can be seated around a round table =(n−1)! ∴ No. of ways 6 people can be seated around a round table =(6−1)!=5! = 120 Now, no. of ways if two particular person (out of 6) sit together =4!×2= 48 ∴ No. of ways 6 people can be seated around a round table if two particular person can not sit together =120−48= 72 Hence the correct answer is 72.
