In how many ways can teh first award be presented to Karen and the last to Lyle? Answer by jim_thompson5910(35256) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Since Karen and Lyle are locked in the first and last slots, this means that there are really 7-2 = 5 free slots left.
So there are 5! = 5*4*3*2*1 = 120 different ways to present the awards.
