એક રિલે દોડમાં પાંચ ટુકડીઓ $A, B, C, D$ અને $E$ એ ભાગ લીધો છે. $A, B$ અને $C$ પ્રથમ ત્રણ સ્થાને (કોઈ પણ ક્રમમાં) રહે તેની સંભાવના શું છે?

Option A
Option B
Option C
Option D

Solution

If we consider the sample space consisting of all finishing orders in the first three places, we will have $^{5} P _{3},$ i.e., $, \frac{5 \,!}{(5-3) \,!}$ $=5 \times 4 \times 3=60$ sample points, each with a probability of $\frac{1}{60}$.

$A$, $B$ and $C$ are the first three finishers.

There will be $3 \,!$ arrangements for $A, \,B$ and $C$.

Therefore, the sample points corresponding to this event will be $3 \,!$ in number.

So $P( A , \,B $ and $C$ are first three to finish) $=\frac{3\, !}{60}=\frac{6}{60}=\frac{1}{10}$
