    There are 362880 different of ways the flags can be arranged in a row

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Given

    Number of flags = 9

    Required

    Number of arrangements

    The question talks about arrangements, this means we're dealing with permutations.

    Provided that all flags are distinct, each of the 9 flags can be arranged in 1! way each.

    All 9 flags can be arranged in

    (1!) ^9 = 1 (this number is negligible)

    All in all, the total 9 flags can be arranged "collectively" in a row in 9! ways

    Calculating 9!

    9! = 9 * 8 * 7 * 6 * 5 * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1

    9! = 362880

    Hence, there are 362880 different of ways the flags can be arranged in a row
