The Spinner Shown Is Divided Into Congruent Sections That Each Contain A Number If The Spinner Is Spun One Time What Is The Probability Of NOT Landing On A 1 class=

Sagot :

Answer:  2/3

==========================================================

Explanation:

There are 12 sections total. It might help to picture the circle split into quarters, and then each quarter is split into three pieces, giving 4*3 = 12 slices total. Or it might help to think of numbers on a round clock face.

Of these 12 sections, we have the value "1" show up exactly 4 times. That means the other values show up 12-4 = 8 times. The probability of not landing on "1" is therefore 8/12 = 2/3.

Side note: Divide both parts of 8/12 by the GCF 4 to reduce the fraction.
