The moderator of a forum discussion is assigning seats to the six participants. If the seats are arranged in a linear fashion, determine the probability that Veronica and Mackenzie are seated next to each other.

There are 5x2=10 waus to seat the gils.

For each of those there is 4!=24 ways to seat the others.

So that is 10x24=240 favourable ways.

There are 6! Ways to sit 6 people in a row so the prob of the girls being together is 240 / 6!
