If you make random guesses for 6 multiple-choice test questions (each with five possinle answers), what is the probability of getting the final question correct given the first five answers are all wrong?

What happened in the first questions doesn't influence the final question, so the probability is simply 1/5 = 0.2

39.31 percent

use binomial Cdf on your calculator.

insert it like such:

num trials: 6

prob: .2

Lower bound: 1

Lower bound: 2

then click enter :)
