Question

If both spinners are spun simultaneously, what is the probability that both spinners will land on red?

Answer 1

Given the spinners;

The probability that the first spinner lands on red is;

`P(red)=(1)/(8)`

The probability that the second spinner lands on red is;

`P(red)=(2)/(8)`

The probability that both spinners will land on red is;

`\begin{gathered} P(both\text{ }red)=(1)/(8)*(2)/(8) \\ \\ P(both\text{ }red)=(2)/(64) \end{gathered}`

CORRECT OPTION:

`(2)/(64)`
