Answer:

0.01024

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume marking was done at random : Hence, each of the 5 time slots have equal Chamves of being marked ;

Number of time slots, n = 5

Required to mark, number of preferred timeslot x = 2

P(x) = 2 /5 = 0.4

Probability of 0.4 that an interviewee gets one of his preferred timeslot.

Probability that each of the 5 interviewees gets one of their preferred time slots :

Using the multiplication rule of independence :

0.4 * 0.4 * 0.4 * 0.4 * 0.4 = 0.4^5 = 0.01024

0.01024 * 100% = 1.024%
