5 canvas can be arranged in 5! ways
2 panels in 2! ways

therefore 5!x2! = 240 ways.

becuase order matters we can just multiply the possibilities for each space.

First space has 5 choices, 2nd has 2, third has 4, 4th has 3, 5th has 2 6th has 1 and 7th has 1 so..

5*2*4*3*2*1*1=240

if you were simply grouping them it would be helpful to separate the groups but here it is not necessary.
