Answer:

Option D. 4/5

Explanation:

we know that

The probability of scoring 1, 3, or 5 points with one randomly thrown dart is equal to divide the area of the largest circle by the area of the square game board

step 1

Find the area of the square game board


A=b^(2)

we have


b=20\ cm

substitute


A=20^(2)


A=400\ cm^(2)

step 2

Find the probability


P=320/400


P=0.8=8/10=4/5
