Three friends are playing a board game in which moves are dictated by a spinner that has the numbers 1 through 12 equally distributed. Mariella is hoping to spin a 5 or a 9 on her next turn. Which of the following best describes this situation?

Question

P(5) = 1 in 12
P(9) = 1 in 12

If it's 'or', then it basically is adding.

1/12 + 1/12 = 1/6

This is basic probability.
