Answer:

The probability is:

4/10

Explanation:

We are given:

four seniors and six juniors.

Number of seniors=4

Total number of people=10 ( since 6+4=10)

We are asked to fill four places on a quiz bowl team.

We are asked to find the probability that all four seniors will be chosen at random.

The probability is calculated as:

Ratio of the number of seniors to the total number of people.

Hence, the probability is:

4/10
