Answer:
5 / 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Total possible outcomes = (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8)
Odd outcomes = (1, 3, 5, 7)
Outcomes > 7 = 8
Required outcomes = (1, 3, 5, 7, 8)
Number of required outcomes = 5
P(pointer stops on odd or number > 7) = required outcome / Total possible outcomes
P(pointer stops on odd or number > 7) :
= 5 / 8
