a) here, we need A and C next to each other. so consider A-C to be one person. now, 3 people can be arranged in 3! ways. and A and C can be arranged in 2! ways among themselves. so the total no. of ways for the specified arrangement is 2! 3!. now all possible ways of arranging those 4 persons is 4!. so the probability in this case is, 2! 3! / 4!
AC or CA with BD or DB is 4 cases (out of 24)
