Question 1192731: How many ways can three boys and three girls be arranged in a circle if the girls must remain next to each other? Show the solution. Answer by math_helper(2461) (Show Source):
The girls can be arranged in 3! = 6 ways.
The boys must also be together (if they are not, neither are the girls), and the 3 boys can be arranged in 3! = 6 ways.
Together, 6*6 = 36 unique arrangements.
