PARAGRAPH A There are five students S_1,\ S_2,\ S_3,\ S_4 and S_5 in a music class and for them there are five seats R_1,\ R_2,\ R_3,\ R_4 and R_5 arranged in a row, where initially the seat R_i is allotted to the student S_i ,\ i=1,\ 2,\ 3,\ 4,\ 5 . But, on the examination day, the five students are randomly allotted five seats. For i=1,\ 2,\ 3,\ 4, let T_i denote the event that the students S_i and S_(i+1) do NOT sit adjacent to each other on the day of the examination. Then, the probability of the event T_1nnT_2nnT_3nnT_4 is 1/(15) (b) 1/(10) (c) 7/(60) (d) 1/5
