Explanation:

Answer 2

The correct option is C. The probability that it will land in an unshaded region is 75%.

Explanation:

The given figure it square, which is divide into 4 equal square. Out of these two squares are half shaded.

If these 4 small square are divided in two equal parts, then total number of parts are 8. Out of 2 parts are shaded.

The probability that it will land in an unshaded region is

`P=\frac{\text{Unshaded parts}}{\text{Total number of parts}}* 100`

`P=(6)/(8)* 100`

`P=(3)/(4)* 100`

`P=75\%`

Therefore probability that it will land in an unshaded region is 75%. Option C is correct.
