Answer 1

1/6 ; 1/2 ; 1/4 ; 1/3

Explanation:

Rolling 3 on a number cube ;

Required =1 ; number if faces on a number cube = 6

P = 1/6

Flipping a coin to get tail up = 1/2

Number of faces on a coin = 2

P = 1 / 2

spinning blue on a spinner with four different colors in four equal parts = 1/4

Total possible outcomes = 4

P = 1 / 4

pulling a white marble froma bag of 2 white marbles and 4 red marbles

Total number of marbles = (2 + 4) = 6

Number of white marbles = 2

P = 2 / 6 = 1 /3
