He is able to rank the cities according to employment opportunities for high-school graduates from the minority groups. He then orders the cities on the basis of truancy among minority high-school students.

a. How many ways is it possible to order 6 cities on the basis of truancy among minority students?

b. If ordering by truancy and by job opportunities are unrelated, how likely is it that truancy will have a perfect reverse ordering to job opportunities?
