A.) 1/36
B.) 1/9
C.) 1/3
D.) 2/3

Answer 1

Purple 1

Total or Possible outcome= 3

Required:

What is the theoretical probability that it stops on the red sector on the last spin?

Formula:

Probability= Successful outcome ÷ Possible outcome

Solution:

Probability of the spinner stoping on red.

Probability= Successful outcome ÷ Possible outcome

Probability=1÷3

Probability=1/3
