If I have a total of 65 students this year, and 5 of them are in Discrete Structures. If I were to draw a name as to who would win the coveted title of Terrific Troll of 2023, how big would the sample space be? a.) Give me 5 possible elements in that sample space. b.) What is the probability that I pick someone from this class? c.) What is the probability that I pick someone from the Discrete class?
