\r\n" );
document.write( "The denominator of the probability is 5P3 = 5*4*3 = 60\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "The numerator is: choose the 1st digit as 8 one way, the last \r\n" );
document.write( "digit 2 ways (4 or 6) and the middle digit any of the remaining \r\n" );
document.write( "3 ways:\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
