A circular spinner for a game has a radius of 5 cm. The probability of winning on one spin of this spinner is $\frac{2}{5}$. What is the area, in sq cm, of the WIN sector? Express your answer in terms of $\pi$.

Sagot :

The total area of a circle is pi * radius^2

The total area of the circle is pi x 5^2 = 25pi sq. cm.

2/5 of this is success, so the answer is 2/5 * 25pi = 10 pi sq. cm.
