Question

if you have a spinning wheel with 3 green sector 1bllue sector and 1red sector what is the probability of getting a green ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Total no. of sectors = 5

No. of green sector = 3

probability of getting green sector = 3/5

Answer 2

Before, finding the solution. Let's see on how to find the answer :

Probability =

$\sf \: \dfrac{green \: sectors}{total \: sectors}$

________________________

Given :

• 3 green sectors
• 1 blue sectors
• 1 red sectors

To find :

• Probability of getting Green

Solution :

Total sectors = 3 + 1 + 1

= 5

Green sector = 3

$\sf \:Probability = \dfrac{green \: sectors}{total \: sectors}$

$\sf \: Probability = \dfrac{3}{5}$

Hence, the probability of getting Green is 3/5.

Probability is the chance of occurence of an event.

• Probability =

$\sf \dfrac{outcomes}{total \: number \: of \: outcomes. }$

• Example :

A die had possibility of getting either 1,2,3,4,5 or 6 is equal. Because the die has 6 equally possible outcomes.
