Since Rohit does not want to sit on the middle seat or at either end (3 chairs), then he can choose 2 chairs to sit. The remaining 4 people can sit in 4! ways. Thus the # of arrangements is 2*4! = 48.
In how many ways can you seat 5 people on a bench if one of them, Rohit, does not want to sit on the middle seat or at either end?
