Four married couples have reserved eight seats in a row at the theater, starting at an isle seat. If they arrange themselves randomly, what is the probability that all the women will sit in adjacent seats and all the men will sit in adjacent seats?
I know the denominator is 8! but I am not sure what the probability is for each seat. I also know the first seat would have 8 choices, but I am not sure about the second seat. Would it be 3 possibilities because all of one gender has to sit next to eachother? I need help figuring out the possibilities for the seats.
