A question paper consists of 5 multiple choice questions each of which has 4 choices(of which only one is correct).If a student answers all the five questions randomly,find the probability that he answers all questions correctly?
-------------------------
P(correct answer) = 1/4
---
P(5 correct answers) = (1/4)^5 = 0.000977
