Let XX be the set of all five digit numbers formed using 1,2,2,2,4,4,0. For example, 22240 is in XX while 02244 and 44422 are not in XX . Suppose that each element of XX has an equal chance of being chosen. Let pp be the conditional probability that an element chosen at random is a multiple of 20 given that it is a multiple of 5 . Then the value of 38p38 p is equal to :
