(A) \(\frac{1}{2}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

A, E,G R D N \(\text { Probabllity }(\mathrm{P})=\frac{\text { favourable case }}{\text { Total case }}\) (when A & E are in order) Total case \(=6\) ! Favourable case \(={ }^6 \mathrm{C}_2 .4\) ! \(P=\frac{(15) 4!}{(30) 4!}\) Probablity when not in order…
