it landing on a 6 is 1 out of 6, it land on a # other than six 5 out of 6

anonymous · Answer

probability is equal to success divided by success +failure. that means that on the spinner there are seven options. 2 of them are 6. so the probability of it landing on something other than a 6 is 5/7.

no it won't be 5 out of 7, it would be 5 out of 6 there's no 7!!

2/7 is the probability of it landing on 6. 2 is the number of success possible. 7 is the success(2) + the failures(5)
