Answer:

0.29

Explanation:

Knowing that the shaded angle is 106 degrees, and a circle's angle total is 360 degrees, we will know what fraction of the circle is shaded by dividing the shaded region's angle by the angle of an entire circle:

106/360 = 0.29

The fraction of the circle that is shaded is also the probability that a randomly selected point within the circle falls in the shaded region since we just divided the desired outcome by all of the possible outcomes.
