Question 244841: Four students drive to school in the same car. The students claim they were late to school and missed a test because of a flat tire. On the makeup test, the instructor asks the students to identify the tire that went flat; front driver's side, front passenger's side, rear driver's side, or rear passenger's side. If the students didn't really have a flat tire and each randomly selects a tire, what is the probability that all four students select the same tire?
