Doubt in this then comment below...i will explain you..

please thumbs up for this solution ..thanks.

.

64 students divided into 4 groups.. so each group contains 16 students....

Now we focus on two students A and B .. we find the probability that these are in same group.

So , A is in 1st group .. probability is 16/64 ...

Now B is in this group then probability is 15/63 ...

So probability of A andBboth are in 1st group. = (16/64)*(15/63) ...

Now ,like this we have 4 groups to be placeA and B ...

So ...

Probability = 4*(16/64)*(15/63) = 15/63 = 5/21

Answer = 5/21 ....
