In how many ways can 5 students sit around a table:
Number of students (n) = 5
The number of ways 5 student can sit round a circular table = (n-1)!
[tex]\begin{gathered} (n-1)! \\ (5-1)! \\ 4! \end{gathered}[/tex][tex]\begin{gathered} 4!\text{ = 4 x 3 x 2 x 1} \\ 4!=24 \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore the number of ways 5 students can sit round a table = 24 ways
Hence the correct answer is Option B
