Explanation:
Let A = 1 to indicate the number of ways to get the names to line up in alphabetical order.
There are B = 6*5*4*3*2*1 = 720 different ways to arrange the six people. Notice how I started at 6 and counted my way down to 1, multiplying all along the way. This can be shortened to factorial notation to say 6! = 720. Or you could use the nPr permutation formula to get the same result (use n = 6 and r = 6).
Once you have the values of A and B, we form the fraction A/B = 1/720 which is the probability of getting the names in alphabetical order.
If you need the answer in decimal form, then use your calculator to find
1/720 = 0.001388
which converts over to 0.1388%
Answer:
14
Step-by-step explanation
We should work backwards here. Jamie is 12, and ayana is five years younger than jamie. This means that ayana is 7 years old. Mary is twice as old as the 7 year old ayana, which means that Mary is 14 years old.
