Hi Sunny.. :)

Try to use the basic formula for calculating probability which is = Favorable cases / Total no. of cases

In this que, Total number of ways= 5*5*5
(as each women can entry any of the 5 coaches)

Favorable Cases: 5
(Hint: let suppose, A,B,C,D,E are five different coaches then, favorable cases would be>
AAA , BBB, CCC, DDD, EEE.)

Therefore, probability= 1/25
