Question

A number cube is tossed and the spinner below is spun. Find P(3 and C).

Answer 1

Answer:

$P(3\ and\ C) = \frac{1}{24}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Cube and Spinner (See attachment for spinner)

Required

Find P(3 and C)

In the attached spinner, there are 8 partitions and C = 2

So:

$P(C) = \frac{2}{8}$

$P(C) = \frac{1}{4}$

In a number cube, there are 6 faces and 1 side is 3.

So:

$P(3) = \frac{1}{6}$

P(3 and C) is calculated as:

$P(3\ and\ C) = P(3) * P(C)$

$P(3\ and\ C) = \frac{1}{6} * \frac{1}{4}$

$P(3\ and\ C) = \frac{1}{24}$
