On a 5 question multiple-choice test, where each question has 5 answers, what would be the probability of getting at least one question wrong?
Give answer as a fraction
-------
Binomial Problem with n = 5 ; p(correct) = 1/5 ; p(wrong) = 4/5
-------------------------------------
P(at least one wrong) = 1 - p(all correct) = 1 - (1/5)^5 = 0.99968
