Answer:

0.16

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Length = 5 units
  • Number of broken sticks= 3
  • Equal lengths =  5 units/3

See the picture attached for reference.

As you see the best points are the green areas which covers 2 out of 5 zones.

Since it is same for both broken points, the probability of  this is:

  • 2/5*2/5 = 4/ 25 = 0.16

Answer is 0.16
