Step-by-step explanation:
Number of Boys=15
Number of Girls =5
Total=15+5=20
Note that as each boy wins, the number of male contestants reduces. Thus is a probability of selecting an item without replacement.
P(1st boy winning) = 15/20
P(2nd boy winning) =14/19
P(3rd boy winning)=13/18
Therefore:
P(boys will place 1st, 2nd, and 3rd in the marathon)
= 15 /20 X 14/19 X 13/18
=91/228
=0.3991
