well there is 4 odd numbers and 8 numbers in all

axie:

ok for the first one there are 8 sections right? so your equation would be x/8 the x being how many odd numbers there are, so how many odd numbers are there?

jarvispacheco:

4

StrawberrySkies:

so you would have to make a fraction with those numbers

axie:

and for the second question 1. how many even numbers/8 2.how many red/8 3. how many purp/8 4. how many blue/8 5. how many yellow/8 6. which color shows up the most and which one shows up the least

jarvispacheco:

oh

axie:

do you need help with finding those?

jarvispacheco:

So for example under red that says P(even number) I put 8

jarvispacheco:

And for P(purple) I put 2 and so on

axie:

mhm!

jarvispacheco:

So.. what would be the probability of landing in an odd number?

axie:

how many odd numbers are there?

jarvispacheco:

4

axie:

yup! and how many numbers are there total

jarvispacheco:

8

jarvispacheco:

4/8 meaning 1/2?

axie:

yeah!

jarvispacheco:

Alright

axie:

have a great day sir!

jarvispacheco:
