Explanation:

This question is more about knowing what the facts are than complicated statistical questions.

Here's the set up - in the Hunger Games, the names of 1 boy and 1 girl, selected from different bins, are picked to do Hunger Games-type stuff.

So who are the boys and who are the girls? Peeta and Gale are boys, Katniss and Prim are girls.

Therefore, the probability for each of them to be picked is:

Katniss: #20/4060~~0.00492~~0.49%#

Peeta: #5/4144~~0.00121~~0.12%#

Gale: #42/4144~~0.01014~~1.01%#

Prim: #1/4060~~0.000246~~0.02%#
