Question

What is the probability of spinning the spinner three times and having all three spins

Answer 1

The numbers greater than 5 include the following numbers:

`6,7\text{ and 8}`

In one spin, the probability of getting these three numbers can be given as

`P(x>5)=(3)/(8)`

In three spins, the probability of getting all numbers greater than 5 can be gotten using the product rule for probability as

`\begin{gathered} P=(3)/(8)*(3)/(8)*(3)/(8) \\ P=(27)/(512) \end{gathered}`

The probability is 27/512 or 0.0527
