Question

A spinner is divided into four equal sections labeled 1, 2, 3, and 4. Another spinner is divided into three equal sections labeled A, B, and C. Simon will spin each spinner one time.
How many of the possible outcomes have an even number or a B?

Answer 1

Answer:

The possible outcome could be 4 or 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 12 possible outcomes. Of the 12, 6 are even and 4 have B's. That would give up 10/12. But then you would subtract the possible outcomes that are BOTH even AND have a B. Only 2 possible outcomes have an even number and the letter B. So 10 minus 2 is 8. That would give you 8/12. Simplify and you will get your answer of 2/3!

Just took the test, so trust me on this fellow K12ers!
