Answer 1

Answer:

1/3%.(Expressing as a common fraction)

Step-by-step explanation:

Here,

Probability(p) of the dart hitting the shaded region=Number of favourable outcomes/Number of all possible outcomes

.°.Number of favourable outcomes=3(°.° the shaded region is 3)

.°.Number of all possible outcomes=4+3+2

=9 (°.°A dart can hit 4,3,2 randomly)

Hence,p=3/9

p=1/3
