Question

One spinner has 48 equal sections and 6 are blue. A second spinner has 72 equal sections and 9 are blue. What is the probability that blue will be spun on both spinners?

Answer 1

\[\frac{6}{48}\times \frac{9}{72}\]

Answer 2

how did you set this up?

Answer 3

well you have 6 blues out of 48 so ratio is
\[\frac{6}{48}\] yes? that is the probability that you get a blue on the first spinner

Answer 4

likewise the probability you get a blue on the second spinner is
\[\frac{9}{72}\]

Answer 5

ohhh

Answer 6

and now you want them BOTH to be blue. assuming they are independent, meaning that the outcome on the first spinner has no effect on the second , then the probability that they both happen is the product of the probabilites

Answer 7

this reduces way down. i believe the answer is
\[\frac{1}{64}\]
