Answer:

1/30

Step-by-step explanation:

let, vanilla be the first ice cream.

hence, the probability of choosing vanila= 1/6

let, chocolate be the second ice cream.

hence, the probability of choosing chocolate=1/5

hence, the probability that the next customer's sundae will have vanilla and chocolate (in either order)= (1/6)×(1/5)

=1/30
