Exactly two of the four orders go to one particular dealer. Answer by Boreal(15235) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! There is a 1/11 probability that it will go to any specific dealer.
For four orders, it is 4C2, the number of ways two orders can go to someone, multiplied by (1/11)^2(10/11)^2
this is 6*100/11^4=0.0410
