In case you want the working out -
You will want to put all these fractions over the same denominator, the lowest common multiple is 180
-2/9
180/9 = 20
20 x -2 = -40/180

A -7/12
180/12 = 15
15 x -7 = -105/180

B -1/15
180/15 = 12
12 x -1 = -12/180

C -1/3
180/3 = 60
60 x -1 = -60/180

D -1/9
180/9 = 20
20 x -1 = -20/180

-105 < -60 < -40 < -20 < -12

A < C < x < D < B

B and D

I’d make the spinner slices into thirds that are even because there would be an equal chance for each slice to be chosen.

Answer:

0.0111% probability that he answers at least 10 questions correctly

Step-by-step explanation:

For each question, there are only two outcomes. Either it is answered correctly, or it is not. The probability of a question being answered correctly is independent from other questions. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$
