Question

Fatheya and Fatema, along with 30 other people, sign up to audition for a talent show. Contestants are called at random to perform for the judges. What is the probability that Fatheya will be called to perform first and Fatema will be called second?

Answer 1

Answer:

1/870

Step-by-step explanation:

Total= 30 people

Fatheya has 1/30 chance to be called first (1 out of 30)

Fatema has then 1/29 chance to be called first after Fatheya was called (one out of 29)

The probability of the scenario happening is 1/30*1/29= 1/870

Answer: 1/870
