Question 415606: John claims he has ESP. An experiment is set up to determine the likelyhood of his claim. Jenny is placed in one classroom and John placed in another classroom across the hall. Jenny is asked to pick one of the integers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 at random. In the other room, John identifies the number he believes was picked. The experiment was repeated 10 times.

What is the probability of John randomly chooses the same number as Jenny out of the integers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5? Give your answer to 1 decimal place
