In how many ways can 5 students be seated around a circular table
if two specific students must sit directly opposite each other?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

When a problem comes to the forum formulated this way, the question arises
about the problem's creator - - whether he (or she) is able to count within 10 ?

And how this problem's writer thinks to place 5 students around a circular
table such that two specific students must sit directly opposite each other?

In my opinion, a special committee should be created immediately to find out this issue.


        By unanimous decision of this committee this task
        should be nominated for shNobel prize in Math.


Many people will have stomach pains from laughing . . - which is good for their health.
