Question

You spin the spinner once.

What is P(not less than 8)?

Write your answer as a fraction or whole number.

Answer 1

Explanation:

If the spinner has numbers 1 through 10 evenly distributed, the probability of getting a number not less than 8 can be calculated as follows:

There are 10 possible outcomes (numbers 1 through 10 on the spinner).

Out of these 10 outcomes, there are 3 outcomes (8, 9, and 10) that are not less than 8.

Therefore, the probability of getting a number not less than 8 is 3/10 or 0.3.

Alternatively, it can be expressed as a fraction: 3/10.
