The answer is 1/273. For the first friend, the probability of choosing one cotton sweatshirt is 5/15. For the second one, they need to choose different color.So the total amount and available amount both decrease one. The same method to third and forth person. So the final probability is (5/15)*(4/14)*(3/13)*(2/12)=1/273.
