Solution
Step 1 ：The problem is asking for the probability that comic E will perform first. Since the order of performance is determined by random selection, each comic has an equal chance of performing first.
Step 2 ：Therefore, the probability that comic E will perform first is 1 divided by the total number of comics, which is 6.
Step 3 ：Performing the division gives a probability of \(0.16666666666666666\).
Step 4 ：Final Answer: The probability that comic E will perform first is \(\boxed{0.16666666666666666}\).
