\(\text{1000 is not divisible by 9}\\ \dfrac{999}{9}=111 \text{ numbers in 1-999 that are divisible by 9}\\ 1000-111 = 889 \text{ numbers that are not divisible by 9}\)

 

for the second question do you mean any length arrangement or 9 letter arrangements

 

\(\text{I assume you mean the chairs are distinct and thus the chair choice matters}\\ \text{There are 5 ways to choose 2 adjacent chairs}\\ \text{There are 2 ways to orient the 2 boys in those two adjacent chairs} \text{That gives us 10 ways to place the boys}\\ \text{then there are }3!=6 \text{ ways to arrange the girls in the 3 remaining chairs}\\ \text{That gives us }10\cdot 6 = 60 \text{ ways to arrange the 5 people as described}\)
