Answer

Option B is correct.

Probability of spinning a green and an F = (2/45)

Step-by-step explanation

The probability of an event is calculated as the number of elements in the event divided by the total number of elements in the sample space.

So, for this question,

Number of times the spinner landed on a green = 8

Total number of times the spinner is spun = 30

Probability of spinning a green = (8/30) = (4/15)

Number of times the spinner landed on F = 5

Total number of times the spinner is spun = 30

Probability of spinning an F = (5/30) = (1/6)

Probability of spinning a green and an F = (4/15) × (1/6) = (4/90) = (2/45)

Hope this Helps!!!
