Compute the probability that if 10 married couples are seated at random at a round table, then no wife sits next to her husband 1 wife sits next to her husband. pick one of the 10 couples=$\binom{10}{1}$. These couples can interchange their position such that they sit next ... one couple sits together=$\frac{N}{19!}$ so probability that no couple sits together=$1-\frac{N}{19!}$ is this correct?
