-- The amount of the decrease is ($120 - $96) = $24

-- As a decimal of the original price, the amount is

$24 / $120 = 0.20 of the original price .

-- To turn any decimal into a percentage,
move the decimal point two places that way ===> .

0.20 = 20 %

The price was decreased by 20% of the original price.

The spinner below is spun twice. If the spinner lands on a border, that spin does not count and spin again. It is equally likely

The probability of red on the second spin 1/12. the probability of blue on the second spin 1/18. the probability of not spinning cyan on either spin is 25/36.

<h3>What is probability?</h3>

Simply put, probability is the likelihood that something will occur. When we don't know how an event will turn out, we can discuss the likelihood or likelihood of several outcomes. Statistics is the study of events that follow a probability distribution.

<h3>What is probability formula?</h3>

The ratio of favorable outcomes to all possible outcomes is used as the formula to determine an event's probability. Probabilities are always in the 0 to 1 range.

Probability = Number of Favorable Outcomes / Total Number of

we know the formula of probability;

probability=favorable outcomes/total number of outcomes

so for red:

P(red) = 3/6 = 1/2

so for blue:

P(blue) = 2/6 = 1/3

so for cyan

P(cyan) = 1/6

Now totally;

P( cyan then red) = 1/6 * 1/2 = 1/12

P(cyan then blue) = 1/6 * 1/3 = 1/18
