Answer:
Colour | Probability
YELLOW | 0.20
WHITE | 0.18
GREEN | 0.12
RED | 0.18
BLUE | 0.32
Step-by-step explanation:
The complete question is presented on the attached image to this solution.
From the image of the spinner and the given probabilities, the combination of YELLOW, WHITE and GREEN make up exactly half of the total space on the spinner.
0.2 + 0.18 + 0.12 = 0.50
Then, BLUE and RED make up the other half of the spinner.
Probability of landing on either BLUE or RED = 1 - 0.50 = 0.50
Let P(BLUE) = x and P(RED) = y
x + y = 0.50
Two of the lines shown on the diagram are diameters of the circle.
The first line that is a diameter splits the circle into two parts; (WHITE, YELLOW, GREEN) and (RED, BLUE).
From here, we have established that x + y = 0.50
The other line that is a diameter splits The circle into two part; (WHITE, BLUE) and (YELLOW, GREEN, RED)
From this other information,
P(WHITE) + P(BLUE) = 0.50
0.18 + x = 0.50
x = 0.50 - 0.18 = 0.32
P(YELLOW) + P(GREEN) + P(RED) = 0.50
0.20 + 0.12 + y = 0.50
y = 0.50 - 0.32 = 0.18
To check, x + y = 0.32 + 0.18 = 0.50 (Correct!!)

First, make up some variables to represent the number of Girls and Boys in the choir.
B = number of boys
G = number of girls
You know that there are 4 times as many girls in the choir as boys. Therefore, the equation you can write is:
If you cross-multiply, then you get the simplified equation:
G = 4B
Intuitively this makes sense since if you multiplied the number of boys in the class by 4, that would be equal to the number of girls you have.
Now, we know that the total class size is 60. So girls plus boys equals 60:
G+B = 60
To solve the equation, replace the G in this equation with the replacement you found before, 4B.
G + B = 60 -->
4B + B = 60 -->
5B = 60 -->
B = 12
However, you are trying to find the number of girls, so plug the answer back into your equation.
G + B = 60 -->
G + 12 = 60 -->
G + 12 -12 = 60 - 12 -->
G = 48
The number of girls you have is 48.
