#360#

Explanation:

There are 4 seats available for 6 people. They can be arranged in any order.

In the first seat, there are 6 possibilities for the people to chose from.

In the second, 5 possibilities (since 1 is already sitting in the first seat) . In the third, 4 possibilities. And finally in the 4th, 3 possibilities.

Taking these all into consideration, just multiply it.

#6 xx 5 xx 4 xx 3 = 360#

Or use the permutation formula:#" " ""_6P_4 = 360#
