Question

Several psychology majors conducted an experiment around campus, asking students to count backwards from 40 to 0 as fast as possible. From their findings, they concluded that out of every 15 students, only 6 could accurately count backwards in less than 15 seconds. They repeated this experiment with the professors. They discovered that their success rate was 140% of the students' success rate. From the list of participants, they randomly selected 10 students and 10 professors. The probability that 4 students who completed the task were selected is S and the probability that 4 professors who completed the task were selected is R. Find the absolute difference in S and R.
