Answer: The probability that she will visit them in the exact order ABCD or DCBA = [tex]\dfrac{1}{12}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: Jennifer wants to visit 4 different cities A,B,C and D on her vacation.
If she visits in an order , total such orders will be [tex]4![/tex] = 4 x 2 x 3 x 1 =24.
Since probability = [tex]\dfrac{\text{Favourable outcomes}}{\text{total outcomes}}[/tex]
In this case favorable outcomes ( ABCD , DCBA)= 2
Total outcomes = 24
Required probability = [tex]\dfrac{2}{24}=\dfrac{1}{12}[/tex]
Hence, the probability that she will visit them in the exact order ABCD or DCBA = [tex]\dfrac{1}{12}[/tex]
