The correct option is D 11C5⋅(9!)2
Total number of guests =18
Arrangement should be such that 4 particular guests should be on one side and 3 on other side.
So, 18−4−3=11 seats left for other guests.
For particular side, say S, four seats have been occupied. The remaining 5 can be occupied in 11C5 ways.
The remaining 6 people out of 11 automatically gets seats on the other side.
But the people in side S can also be permuted in 9! ways.
Similarly, the people in the other side can also be permuted in 9! ways.
Hence, required number of arrangements =11C5⋅6C6⋅(9!)2=11C5⋅(9!)2
