Answer:

1/24

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a mutually exclusive event.

There are four possible floors and four people.

The probability that the first floor is selected is 1/4

The same probability exists for the second floor and the third and the fourth.

So, the probability of all four people choosing different floors is 1/4 * 1/4 * 1/4 * 1/4 = 1/24
