0.29
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that there are 4 couples i.e. 8 people
They decide to play as teams of two and to select the teams randomly
Now we are asked How likely is it that every person will be teamed with someone other than the person he or she came to the party with
For people 1 , there are 6 options for pairing Since he or she cannot pair with his /her own partner
So, Choices For people 1 will be 6 person
So, Probability that person 1 will be teamed with someone other than the person he or she came to the party with =
So, Probability that every person (=8 person) will be teamed with someone other than the person he or she came to the party with =
Hence Probability that every person will be teamed with someone other than the person he or she came to the party with is 0.29
