5/8 = 0.625 rounds to 0.63 = 63% <===

Answer 2

The answer is 63%.

Explanation:

Total number of sections in the spinner = 8

Total number of green sections in the spinner = 3

Hence, the Probability against a spinner landing on a green space if the spinner had 8 sections & 3 of them are green is =
`1-(3)/(8)=(5)/(8)`

= 0.625 ≈ 62.5% rounding to 63%.
