occupied reading spot there are different numbers of

he just said that in each different spot there are different
number of readers. So there will be many possibilities...
It is same as number of ways in which you can make a sum of
9 using only digits from 1 to 9 each at most once...

In this case answer is: 23-7 = 16
but different answers are possible depending on case u choose
