Question 1177376: a class of 31 students, a committee of 2 is chosen to organize a party What is the probability that sue and jane are both on the committee?
i am sooo confused i figured out that 31C2 = 465 possible combinations of pairs
The number of all possible pairs is = = 31*15 = 465.
Of them, ONLY one pair satisfies the problem's requirement.
So, the probability to get this happy final choice is P = . ANSWER
