You can put this solution on YOUR website! each day your teacher randomly calls on 5 students in your class of 30. what is the probability you will be called on today?
---------------------
# of groups of 5 students that does not include you is 29C5 = 118755
------
Total number of groups of 5: 30C5 = 142506
---
P(not called today) = 118755/142506 = 0.8333
----
P(called today) = 1 0.8333 = 0.1667
