Question 311184: Nigel keeps six CDs (Beatles, Duran Duran, Eminem, Five for Fighting, Gorillaz, and Styx) on a shelf in alphebetical order. If Nigel pulls them down and then puts them up in a random order, find the probability of P(Gorillaz CD is in the correct position). Answer by Fombitz(32388) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! There are 6 albums and 6 places to put them (with respect to each other).
That's 6! possible permutations.
Only one of them is correct.
P(correct order)=1/6!=1/720
