There are 6 permutations (outcomes) of the three subjects, each being different from the others. So it is easy to see how many arrangements are in the order 'art, math, science.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohhh

OpenStudy (kropot72):

So what is the arrangement of the three subjects at the very top of the diagram?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

art

OpenStudy (kropot72):

Yes, art followed by math - science. Are there any other arrangements in the diagram in that exact order?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no

OpenStudy (kropot72):

Correct. So the probability that the projects are in the order 'art, math, science is 1/6. The total number of possible arrangements being 6.

OpenStudy (anonymous):
