Question

Andy spins the spinner and rolls a standard number cube. Find the probability that the spinner will stop on yellow and the cube will show a three or five. Write the probability as a fraction in simplest form.

Answer 1

Answer: 1/5 , 1/2, and 5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

given;

probability that the cube shows a three (3) or five (5).

probability that it stops on yellow.

1. the probability p of the spinner stopping on yello  

= 1/5 times

a cube has 6 sides

2. probability that it shows a 3

this is going to be 3 divided by the total sides on the cube which is 6

P = ( 3 ) = 3/6

Divide both side by 3

= 1/2.

3. probability that it shows a 5,

this is going to be 5 divided by the total sides on the cube which is 6

P = ( 5 )

  = 5/6.
