Probability of Xavier (X) solving the problem = 1/4
Probability of Yvonne (Y) solving the problem = 1/2

Probability of both X & Y solving the problem = 1/4 x 1/2 = 1/8

Probability of both Zelda (Z) not solving the problem = 1 - 5/8 = 3/8

Now, Probability of both X & Y solving the problem and Z not solving the problem = 1/8 x 3/8 = 3/64

Answer should be E.
