(0.1 You are playing a game of hide-and-seek with two friends. While one of your friends counts, you and your other friend are given a chance to hide in one of five possible hiding spots. You are each allowed to pick a hiding spot, and are permitted to share a hiding spot. Your friend finishes counting and checks one of the five hiding spots. Assuming that everyone's decisions are made uniformly at random, what are the chances that your friend does not find anyone in the first spot that they check? Please select a single option below \( 8 / 25 \) \( 9 / 25 \) \( 12 / 25 \) \( 16 / 25 \) \( 20 / 25 \)
