Total number of favorable cases = 1000 x 800

Now in order to have a sibling pair, we have to select the senior student from any one of the 60 pairs available. Once we select the senior, we have to select the junior obviously from the same pair. So the favorable chances will be 60.

Hence required probability = 60/1000x800 = 3/40,000
