The probability that the 10th will be able to sit on his/her original seat when the 1st person has randomly changed his/her seat is 7/9
Probability :
In Mathematics, Probability stands for the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes to the total number of outcomes in a random experiment. It is used to predict how likely an event can happen.
Probability of an event,
P(E) = No of favorable outcomes / total number of outcomes
Here we have,
10 people always get on a bus in the same order and sit in the same places.
The 1st person has randomly changed his/her seat
Except for 1 remaining number of seats is 9
If 1st person changes his/her place with the remaining 9 seats the number of ways that 1st person can be seated is 9
In 9 ways 10th will be able to sit on his/her original seat when the 1st person is seated in 2 to 9 seats i.e 7 seats
Therefore,
The number of favorable outcomes that the 10th person will be able to seat in his/her original seat = 7
From the above observations,
The probability that the 10th will be able to sit on his/her original seat
= 7 / 9

When it comes to fractions yes you do. But to make it easier just multiply the denominators and that should give u a common denominator, they don't always have to be least common.
D. Will be the correct answer
The answer is: 10 x¹³ y¹⁰ .
__________________________________________________________
1x^8 * 2y^(10) * 5x^5 =
1* 2* 5 * x^8 * x^5 * y^(10) =
10 * x^(8+5) * y^(10) =
10 * x^(13) * y^(10) = 10 x^(13) y^10 ; write as:
