    Let S be a set of 5 elements and P(S)P(S) denote the power set of S . Let E be an event of choosing an ordered pair (A, B) from the set P(S)×P(S)P(S) \times P(S) such that A∩B=∅A \cap B = \varnothing. If the probability of the event E is 3p2q\frac{3^{p}}{2^{q}}, where p,q∈Np,q \in \mathbb{N}, then p+qp + q is equal to
