Answer:

1/9

Explanation:

Probability is the branch of mathematics concerning numerical descriptions of how likely an event is to occur, or how likely it is that a proposition is true. The probability of an event is a number between 0 and 1, where, roughly speaking, 0 indicates impossibility of the event and 1 indicates certainty.

Divide the number of events by the number of possible outcomes.

Answer:

1/9

Explanation:

Probability = Expected outcome/Total outcome

From the given pi chart,

Total outcome = 360degrees (since the total angle in a circle is 360 degrees)

Since we to find the probability of scoring a 5, we can see that the angle when he scores a 5 is 40degrees, hence;

Expected outcome = 40degrees

Pr(scoring a 5) = 40/360

Pr(scoring a 5) = 1/9

Hence the probability of scoring a 5 is 1/9
