Answer 1

Answer:

0.01323

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a university's leadership council is made up of 14 members: 5 are students, 4 are teachers, and 5 are deans.

Selecting I person at random canbe done in 28 ways

The next one from remaining in 27 ways

Total no of ways of selecting = $28*27 = 756$

No of ways of selecting 2 students = 5C2 = 10

Probability  that two students will be selected

=$\frac{10}{756} \\=0.01323$
