Renee is playing a game with marbles and a spinner. The spinner has four sections: orange, black, purple, and white. The marbles are kept in a bag and come in three colors: orange, black, and purple. Renee first spins the spinner and then picks a marble from the bag without looking. What is the probability that the color of the marble matches the color on which the spinner lands? brainly

Answer 1

Answer:

i think 3 out of 4 chances

Step-by-step explanation:

because theyre are three colors alike, black, orange and purple.

Answer 2

Answer:

$\frac{1}{16}$ Is the chance of the colours matching.

Step-by-step explanation:

The possibility of the spinner landing on an orange side is $\frac{1}{4}$

and the possibility of the marble being orange is $\frac{1}{4}$ in this case you have to remember, in the fraction, you have 4 possibilities and 1 desirable outcome, when you have two dependant possibilities you have to multiply them:

$\frac{1}{4} * \frac{1}{4}$

And the result of that multipliction is $\frac{1}{16}$ which is the probability of the marble and the spiner colours matching.
