<h2>
Answer:</h2>
Option: B is the correct answer.
The probabilities are equal.
( Since, probability of landing on 1 and on 4 are equal i.e. 1/8 )
<h2>
Step-by-step explanation:</h2>
The spinner is divided into two sizes such that the larger wedges are twice the size of the smaller ones.
The numbers that come on the smaller wedge are: 1,3,4 and 6
and those who come on the large wedge are: 2 and 5
If we divide the wedge which ere twice into equal sections then the total number of sections are:
8
We know that the probability of an event is defined as the ratio of number of favorable outcomes to the total number of outcomes.
- The probability that the spinner lands on 1: 1/8
( Since 1 is comprised of just one section out of total 8 sections)
Similarly,
- The probability that the spinner lands on 2: 2/8
( Since 2 is comprised of two sections out of total 8 sections)
- The probability that the spinner lands on 3: 1/8
( Since 3 is comprised of just one section out of total 8 sections)
Similarly,
- The probability that the spinner lands on 4: 1/8
- The probability that the spinner lands on 5: 2/8
- The probability that the spinner lands on 6: 1/8
