2 of 36 stealing; find prob. neither found in checking 4

[jasinda]

A manager can identify employee theft by checking samples of employee shipments. Among 36 employees, 2 are stealing. If the manager checks on 4 different randomly selected employees, find the probability that neither of the theives will be identified.

I dont know where to start. Or how to do this at all. Please help me.

Re: Multiplication rule? please help

2 are stealing and 34 are not. Calculate the probability of getting 4 honest employees in a row out of the 36. That's where the multiplication rule comes in. This is sampling without replacement.
