Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In the first room, there are six possible departments that could be placed. In the second room, since one department has already been placed, there are only five possible departments that could be placed. This pattern continues for all six rooms, giving a total of 6 x 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 = 720 possible arrangements.
