Probablity of electron

A nucleus is located at(0,0,0).If the probability of finding an s-orbital electron in a tiny volume assumed (a,0,0) is 1 x 10-5.Then find probability of finding an electron in the same sized volume around (0,a,0)

For an s-orbital, the probability is uniform for a sphere of a particular radius so the prob. shud remain the same provided the "small" volume mentioned is the same.

So the prob will be 10-5

im mot too sure doing At Str. after long time
