A particular Spotify playlist contains 105 songs, of which 10 are by the Beatles. Suppose the shuffle feature is used to play the songs in random order. What is the probability that the first Beatles song heard is the fifth song played?

Answer :

Answer: The required probability is 0.3296.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of songs = 105

Number of songs are by the Beatles = 10

So, Number of songs are not by the Beatles = 105-10=95

So, the probability that the first Beatles song heard is the fifth song played is given by

[tex]\dfrac{^{95}C_4\times ^{10}C_1}{^{105}C_5}\\\\=0.3296[/tex]

Hence, the required probability is 0.3296.

Answer:

10/105
