Find Probability If the spinner shown below is spun once, what is the probability of it landing on an odd number? Answer:
What is the probability of rolling a number less than three on a number cube marked with 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 on its faces? A. P(number < 3) = 2 6 = 1 3 B. C. D. 1. 2. 3. 4. A B C D
GAMES A game requires spinning the spinner shown below. If the number spun is greater than 3, the player wins. What is the probability of winning the game? = Answer:
GAMES A game requires spinning the spinner shown. If the number spun is less than or equal to 2, the player wins. What is the probability of winning the game? A. P(number ≤ 2) = B. C. D. 1 2 4 = 1 2 1. 2. 3. 4. A B C D
Find a Complementary Event GAMES A game requires spinning the spinner shown. If the number spun is greater than 3, the player wins. What is the probability of not winning? Definition of complementary events
Find a Complementary Event Answer: , or 75%.
