Question

A spinner is half red and half blue. If you spin the spinner twice, what is the probability that you will get red both times?

Answer 1

Answer:  Probability of getting red both times is $\frac{1}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

A spinner is half red and half blue.

Probability of getting red is given by

$\frac{1}{2}$

Probability of getting blue is given by

$\frac{1}{2}$

Since he spins the spinner twice.

Probability that you will get red both times is given by

$\frac{1}{2}\times \frac{1}{2}\\\\=\frac{1}{4}$

Hence, Probability of getting red both times is $\frac{1}{4}$
