A

$\frac{1}{{77}}$

B

$\frac{1}{{132}}$

C

$\frac{1}{{231}}$

D

None of these

Solution

(b) $6$ boys and $6$ girls can be arranged in a row in $12\,\,!$ ways.

If all the $6$ girls are together, then the number of arrangement are $7\,\,!\, \times \,6\,\,!$.

Hence required probability$ = \frac{{7\,\,!\,.\,6\,\,!}}{{12\,\,!}}$

$ = \frac{{6 \times 5 \times 4 \times 3 \times 2}}{{12 \times 11 \times 10 \times 9 \times 8}} = \frac{1}{{132}}$.
