Answer:

The spinner is not fair

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Sections = 8

Blue = 3

Purple = 5

Solving(a): Is it fair?

The spinner is not fair because the probability of an outcome of Blue does not equal the probability of obtaining Purple.

i.e.

P(Blue) = \frac{3}{8}

P(Purple) = \frac{5}{8}

\frac{3}{8} \ne \frac{5}{8}

Solving (b):

To make it fair, the blue sections and the purple sections must be made equal (4 each)

How many boxes? for some reason it isn't making since to me
amid [387]
First find the total area of the building.

44ft x 74ft = 3256ft^2

Next, since you have 24 tiles per box, each covering 1ft^2 of space, find the number of boxes you need to supply the minimum number of tiles needed to fill the area.

3256ft^2 ÷ 24 = 135.6 boxes

Since you are finding the minimum number of boxes to completely fill the given area, round up.

Answer = 136 boxes
