Suppose that 20 women and 20 men have been successfully screened for 5 positions at the IRS. If the 5 positions are filled at random from the 40 finalists, what is the probability that they are all filled with women?
Write your answer as a decimal rounded to 4 places.
(Hint: There are exactly two primes in this 4-digit rounded number.)
Homework Answers
Total ways = C(40, 5)
Only women then total way = C(20, 5)
Hence, 0.0236 is the answer (rounded to 4 decimals)
Please comment if any doubt. Thank you.
