Question

Geneva has a spinner with eight equal parts numbered one thru eight. If Geneva spins the spinner one time, what is the probability that the spinner will land on the number two?

A. 1/8
B. 2/8
C. 8/2
D. 8/1

Answer 1

Answer: A

Explanation: A would be the right answer because it says equal parts. If it weren’t equal then the probability would be all messed up.

Answer 2

Answer: I would go with A. 1/8

Step-by-step explanation: if she is only spinning it one time, and she is hoping to get 1 specific answer and there are 8 options, then 1/8 is the only one that makes sense. That’s a 12.8% chance of landing on two. I apologize if I’m incorrect.
