Question

You spin the spinner and flip a coin. Find the probability of the compound event.

A spinner is divided into 5 equal regions. The sections are labeled 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5.

The probability of spinning a prime number and not flipping heads is
.

Answer 1

3/10

2, 3, and 4 are prime numbers. Those are three numbers worth. The maximum number on the spinner is 5 so you multiply 5 by 2 and get 10. Again, 3 numbers are prime numbers. So from there you add 3 and 10 as a fraction and get 3/10
