Given : The number of faces in a fair number pyramid (1,2,3,4) =4
Let A be the event that number pyramid will land on three
P(A) =1/4
The number of equal sized colored sections in spinners= 3
Let B be the event that the spinner will stop on blue.
Then, P(B)= 1 / 3
Since, both the events A and B are independent.
Thus, the probability that the number pyramid will land on three and the spinner will stop on blue is given by :-
P(A∩B)=P(A)×P(B)
= (1/3) x (1/4)
= 1/12
Hence, the probability that the number pyramid will land on three and the spinner will stop on blue = 1/12
