1. [10 pts] Dora owns 12 backpacks, one for each month of the year, and each back pack has a label for the month it corresponds to (thus the backpacks are all distinguishable). Recently, Dora transitioned to using digital maps, as her paper map does not contain the area surrounding the Big Red Hill. And while Dora is waiting for her maps app to load, she randomly permutes the order of her 12 backpacks. What is the probability that the rst backpack in this permutation is the 'August' backpack, given that the last backpack in the permutation is the 'March' backpack? (Solve this problem by dening a uniform probability space.)
