Roulette is a casino game that involves spinning a ball on a wheel that is marked with numbered squares that are red, black, or green. Half of the numbers 1 - 36 are colored red and half are black and the numbers 0 and 00 are green. Each number occurs only once on the wheel. What is the probability of landing on an even number and a number greater than 17? (A number is even if it is divisible by 2. 0 and 00 are considered even as well.)​

Answer:

the wording (punctuation) of the question can lead to different interpretations....

I assume that the question was >17 & even which is "5/19",

BUT... it can also be read as two questions

first >17 which is "10/19"

and second an even number which is "9/19"

BUT !!! I think that the question answer is 5/19

Step-by-step explanation:

Even Number  = 18/38 = 9/19

greater 17 = 20/38 = 10/19

Even & greater 17 = 10/38 = 5/19
