Detailed Solution

6 guests are there and the couple (H,W) has to be seated consecutively.
Let's permute the 6 guests and (H,W) block bound together .This can be done in 77!​ ways using the formula of circular probability.
Further the (H,W) can be permuted on their own.
Hence total no. of ways of couple taking consecutive seats = 7!7​×2 = 720×2 = 1440
Hence 1 is the correct option.
