we arrange at first the 6 people from other families (green seats) on the table. there are 5! ways to do this. say ♠ stands for a seat for a member from family A and ♣ stands for a seat for a member from family B. each of the 6 places (blue boxes) between the green seats can be filled with: nothing (empty) ⇔ we add 0 to it or a seat ♠ ⇔ we add 1 to it or 2 seats ♠♠ ⇔ we add 2 to it or 3 seats ♠♠♠ ⇔ we add 3 to it or 4 seats ♠♠♠♠ ⇔ we add 4 to it or 5 seats ♠♠♠♠♠ ⇔ we add 5 to it or a seat ♣ ⇔ we add 100 to it or 2 seats ♣♣ ⇔ we add 200 to it or 3 seats ♣♣♣ ⇔ we add 300 to it or 4 seats ♣♣♣♣ ⇔ we add 400 to it in all 6 boxes we should totally put 5 seats ♠♠♠♠♠ and 4 seats ♣♣♣♣. that means the sum of all 6 boxes should be 5+400=405. so the number of ways to do this is the coefficient of term x^(405) in the expansion of the generating function (1+x+x^2 +x^3 +x^4 +x^5 +x^(100) +x^(200) +x^(300) +x^(400) )^6 , which is 4626, see below. since the members both in family A and family B are permutable, the number of ways to arrange the members from family A and B is 4626×4!×5!. the totaly number of ways to arrange all people around the table is thus 4626×4!×5!×5!=1 598 745 600

you have 5 seats ♠for the family A. in each box you can put 1 or 2 or 3 or 4 or 5 seats ♠. totally you must put all 5 seats ♠. or you put in this only seats for family B, namly 1 or 2 or 3 or 4 seats ♣. totally you must put all 4 seats ♣. if empty means 0, a ♠ means 1, 2 ♠♠ means 2, 3 ♠♠♠ means 3, 4 ♠♠♠♠ means 4, 5 ♠♠♠♠♠ means 5, and a ♣ means 100, 2 ♣♣ means 200, 3 ♣♣♣ means 300, 4 ♣♣♣♣ means 400, the sum of numbers in all 6 boxes must be 405.
