Question

One of those fraction type questions, that I don’t know

Answer 1

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we need to first find the ratio of numbers less than four to total numbers.

There are 3 numbers on the wheel less than 4 (1, 2, and 3). There are 8 total numbers, meaning the ratio of numbers less than 4 to total numbers is 3:8.

Now, we need to find the probability of spinning a white number. There are 3 white numbers on the wheel (3, 5, 8). However, one of these numbers (3) is less than 4, so it is already accounted for in the previous ratio. There are 2 numbers left, meaning the ratio of remaining white numbers to total numbers is 2:8.

Adding this to the original equation, we get 5:8. As a fraction, 5:8 = 5/8. The answer that correctly highlights this is C.
