$6$ people sit down around a circular table. This group of $6$ people includes a pair of identical twins . How many ways can they be seated? ?

note: $2$ seatings are considered the same if one can be rotated to form the other. Two seatings are also considered same if the two twins switch positions.

if you want to know how it works , read any books of combinatorics .
it could be "principles and techniques in combinatorics" or google it :)
