125 different ways....( 5 X 5 X 5) am i right?
-
oooh boy, math problems. I'm agreeing with Calicorey, looks pretty smart =]

Well, this is a simple probability question. It is 3125(5x5x5x5x5) because the probability of finding two particular flavours next to one another is 5x5, for three flavours it is 5x5x5 and for four it is 5x5x5x5, you get the idea.

Need more clarification of the question, but I'm assuming that you're only given five scoops, each is a different flavor. So the permutation would be 5x4x3x2x1.

5x4x3x2x1 Called 5 factorial Noted as 5! There are 5 choices for the first scoop. Ther wil be 4 choices each for the next. Then 3 then 2 then 1
