The sophomore students have large lockers that line the school's northern hallway in a single row. A group of 5 friends agreed to choose lockers next to each other. How many different ways can the students choose adjacent lockers?

120 ways

5 ways

97 ways

25 ways

Hello,

We choice a student betheen the 5

We have 4 students possible to put behind

We have 3 students possible to put behind

We have 2 students possible to put behind

Thus 4*3*2*1=24 posibilities but 5 choice possibles for the first student

5*24=120

(or 5!)

But if there are n lockets in the the school’s northern hallway

(n-5) * 120 is the right number.

Any way the answer is 120 ways.
