Quizplus · Accepted Answer

There is only one way to arrange the cities in alphabetical order out of the total possible arrangements. The total number of arrangements of 5 cities is 5! (5 factorial), which equals 120. Therefore, the probability is 1/120 = 0.00833 when rounded to five decimal places.
