Answer:

The probability of a person getting their own hat is 1/5 or 20%.

Step-by-step explanation:

If each person has one hat the chances (the probability) of them getting their own hat would be 20%. The chances (the probability) of them getting a hat that belongs to one of the other four students would be 80%. Due to there being 5 hats each person owns 1 hat so there would be a 1 out of 5 chance of them getting their own hat.
