On a six-question multiple-choice test there are five possible answers for each question,of which one is correct (C) and four are incorrect (I). If a student guesses randomlyand independently, find the probability of(a) Being correct only on questions 1 and 4 (i.e., scoring C, I, I, C, I, I).(b) Being correct on two questions
