Answer:
I hope that is helpful for you
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we have a colourful spinner which is equally divided into 6 parts.
Thus, n(S) =6
Out of 6, 3 parts are Yellow, 1 part is Orange, 1 part is Blue and 1 part is Green.
If the spinner is spinned,
Event A: The pointer will land on Yellow.
There is only 1 yellow part.
Hence,
n(A) = 1
P(A) = n(A)/n(S)
= 1/6
Ans. The probability that the pointer will land on yellow is 1/6.
Event B: The pointer will land on White.
There are 0 white parts.
Hence,
n(B) =0
P(B) = n(B)/n(S)
= 0/6
=0
Ans. The probability that the pointer will land on white is 0.
Event C: The pointer will land on Blue.
There is only 1 blue part.
Hence,
n(C) = 1
P(C) = n(C)/n(S)
= 1/6
Ans. The probability that the pointer will land on blue is 1/6.
