(n-1)! ways

5 people, so 4! ways

I do not believe that answer is correct. Look at it this way:

Let the first person sit anywhere. Then the remaining 4 people can be seated in 4! (4 factorial = 4 * 3 * 2 * 1) Therefore 4! = 24 ways of seating 5 people around a circular table.

King Arnold sits at a Round Table. There are 4 empty seats. In how many ways can 4 Knights sit at them?

When seating 4 Knights at 4 empty seats around a round table, we can fix one Knight in one seat to eliminate the rotations, effectively reducing the problem to arranging the remaining 3 Knights in the remaining 3 seats. The number of ways to arrange 3 Knights is given by 3! (3 factorial), which equals 6. Thus, there are 6 different ways for the 4 Knights to sit at the Round Table.

How many ways can 5 men and 5 women be seated alternatly at a round table?

To seat 5 men and 5 women alternately at a round table, we can fix one person to eliminate symmetrical arrangements. This leaves us with 4 men and 5 women to arrange. The men can be arranged in (4!) ways and the women in (5!) ways. Therefore, the total number of arrangements is (4! \times 5! = 24 \times 120 = 2880).
