She has decided on a strategy in which she will place four balls (marked A, B, C, and D) into a box. She randomly selects one ball
for each question and replaces the ball in the box. The marking on the ball will determine her answer to the question. There are five multiple-choice questions on the exam.
What is the probability she will get?
