Answer #1

Solution:

Number of student = 5

Total available student name to call for 1st time = 5

Total available student name to call for 2nd time = 4

Total available student name to call for 3rd time = 3

Total available student name to call for 4th time = 2

Total available student name to call for 5th time = 1

Total possible distinct orders that professor call the names of the five students = 5*4*3*2*1 = 120 ways. (Option a)
