In how many ways can you seat 6 people on a bench if one of them, Rohit, does not want to sit on the middle seat or at either end?
Options:
(A) 360
(B) 1720
(C) 2880
(D) 5040
(E) 10080 OK. Let's think. Some random thoughts first:

Show your work and conclude with the exact phrasing "Therefore, the final answer is [answer]." where [answer] is just the final number or expression that solves the problem.

Since Rohit does not want to sit on the middle seat or at either end (3 chairs), then he can choose 3 chairs to sit. The remaining 5 people can sit in 5! ways. Thus the # of arrangements is 3*5! = 360. The answer: (A).
