There are a total of 5 options to choose from. The probability of selecting an umbrella first is 1/5, then the probability of selecting a shaving kit next is 1/4 (since one item has already been selected). Therefore, the probability of selecting an umbrella and a shaving kit in that order is (1/5) x (1/4) = 0.05 or 5%. Therefore, the best choice would be C.
