Step 1
Ii the line is for N persons and two girls have to stand together, count the two girls as 1 person.
Then, the number of permutations is ( N - 1 ) ! .
Step 2
For every such arrangement, these two girls can stand in two ways, one after the other..
So, overall, the number of permutations is 2 X ( N - 1 ) ! .
