    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.
