A spinner with 8 equally sized slices has 2 blue slices and 6 yellow slices. The dial is spun and stops on a slice at random. What is the probability that the dial stops on a red slice?

Answer:

0

Explanation:

Probability = required outcome / Total possible outcomes

Total possible outcomes = (blue slice + yellow slice) = (2 + 6) = 8

Required outcome = number of red slices = 0

Probability of stopping on a red slice :

(0 / 8) = 0
