A teacher randomly assigns the 20 students in her class to study groups, each with 5 students. If there
are 10 boys and 10 girls, what is the probability that two of the study groups have all boys and two
have all girls?
Solution
Number of ways of picking teams such that each gender remains in the same group is :
 (10C5)(5C5)(10C5)(5C5)
Total number of ways of picking 4 groups of 5 is :
 (20C5)(15C5)(10C5)(5C5)
So, probability becomes :
(10C5)(5C5)(10C5)(5C5) divided by (20C5)(15C5)(10C5)(5C5)
63504 / 11732745024
