Jan has 4 kids. Joey, Britt, Candle, and Harry. Each morning Jan puts something special in their lunch box. On this morning she was following a specific request from John, the husband. John had given Jan 4 specific items to give each kid. Joey was into baseball, so dad had picked out a pack of baseball cards for him. Britt was into horses, so dad had picked out a small ceramic pony for her. Candle was a big hockey fan, so he had a puck for her. Harry was a big fan of Twisted Sister, so he had a music CD for him. Jan had many things on her mind on the morning of the mistake. She gave each of the kids their lunch boxes, and after they had left she second guessed who got what. She did give one gift to each kid. What are the chances that exactly 3 of the kids got the correct gift? In %.
