Each of the ten digits (0 through 9) is written on a separate piece of paper and placed in a basket. A slip is pulled out, and its digit is recorded in the order in which the slip was drawn. The slip is not replaced after the digit is recorded. Find the probability that the number 6543 is formed. The probability is P(E)=
