A certain team has 6 members, including Joey. A three-member relay team will be selected as follows: one of the 6 members is to be chosen at random to run first, one of the remaining 5 members is to be chosen at random to run second, and one of the remaining 4 members is to be chosen at random to run third. What is the probability that Joey will be chosen to run second or third?  Select: A) 1/2 B) 2/3 C) 1/3 D) 1/6 E) 2/5
Each member has an equal probability to run second (1/6) or third (1/6).   The probability that Joey runs second or third is 1/6 + 1/6 = 1/3   The answer is 1/3.
