P(not purple)= 3/4 .
To determine (not purple)P(not purple), we need to find the probability of landing on any color other than purple. Since there are four equal sectors, each representing one color (pink, purple, blue, and green), and they are all equally likely, the probability is the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes (colors other than purple) to the total number of possible outcomes.
The total number of possible outcomes is the number of sectors on the spinner, which is 4.
The number of favorable outcomes (colors other than purple) is 3 (pink, blue, and green).
Therefore, the probability (not purple)
P(not purple) is given by:
P(not purple)= Number of favorable outcomes / Total number of possible outcomes = 3/4
So, P(not purple)= 3/4 .
