What is the probability that the arrow will stop on 2?

OpenStudy (jgkg13):

OpenStudy (kingjuliuz123):

1/6

OpenStudy (cecil_the_weasel):

Kingjuliuz123 is correct. But do you understand why the answer is 1/6, jgkg13?

OpenStudy (jgkg13):

ok

OpenStudy (jgkg13):

r ya sure

OpenStudy (jgkg13):

oh and no can u explain

OpenStudy (cecil_the_weasel):

There are 6 'slices' of the wheel labeled 1 through 6. One of them has the number 2 on it. So there is a 1 out of 6 chance that the arrow will land on any one of the numbers. Or a 1/6 chance. Hope this helps. :D

OpenStudy (jgkg13):

i have 2 more questions if u want to answer them

OpenStudy (cecil_the_weasel):

I can try to help. :) This isn't for a test is it? I don't feel comfortable with someone turning in answers that aren't theirs.

OpenStudy (jgkg13):

oh no not a test homework

OpenStudy (jgkg13):

What is the probability that the arrow will stop on a number that is greater than 5?

OpenStudy (jgkg13):

thats the next one cecil

OpenStudy (cecil_the_weasel):

Sorry, had a bit of school work to do. I'm back now. There are 10 numbers on the wheel, 0-9. If we want numbers greater than 5 then we would land on numbers 6,7,8, and 9. Four numbers out of 10 are greater than 5, or 4/10. This can be simplified to 2/5.
