Question

What is the probability that the spinner will

land on a 5 and then a 1? Write your answer as a
percent

Answer 1

The probability of spinning a 5 first and then a 1 is:

(1/6) * (1/6) = 1/36

Expressed as a percent, this is:

(1/36) * 100% = 2.78%

So the probability of landing on a 5 and then a 1 is 2.78%
