Answer:

when rolling a die you can end up getting 6 possibilities all together.

the number of even numbers in a die is 3.

therefore in the first throw you have a possibility of getting an even number at 0.5 or 50%.

and in the second throw you have a possibility of getting an even number at 0.5 x 0.5 which is 0.25 or 25%.

Hope this helps.

Answer:

$4.9\%$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

To find out the probability of hitting a ball into the circular hole, divide the area of the hole by the area of the playing area

Let

x ----> the area of the hole

y ----> the area of the playing game

$P=\frac{x}{y}$

we have

$y=16\ ft^2$

<em>Find the area of the hole</em>

The area of the circle (hole) is equal to

$A=\pi r^{2}$

we have

$r=1/2=0.5\ ft$ ----> the radius is half the diameter

assume

$\pi =3.14$

substitute

$A=(3.14)(0.5)^{2}$

$A=0.785\ ft^2$

<em>Find the probability</em>

$P=\frac{x}{y}$

we have

$x=0.785\ ft^2$

$y=16\ ft^2$

substitute

$P=\frac{0.785}{16}$

$P=0.0491$

Convert to percentage

$0.0491*100=4.91\%$

Round to the nearest tenth

$4.9\%$
