    1/6

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The number of ways they can line up is 3*2*1 = 6. Only one of these is alphabetical order. The probability that they will line up randomly in alphabetical order is 1/6.

    __

    Any of the three can line up first; either of the remaining two can line up second, and the remaining person can line up last. Thus there are 3*2*1 possible orders.
