Chen is playing a game that requires each player to spin an arrow to one of four colors, equally divided: green, orange, purple, or yellow.

Four players before Chen spun the arrow to purple, but Chen really wants her arrow to land on green. How is the probability of Chen’s spin affected by the spins of previous players?

Chen's probability of landing on purple is increased because the previous players all landed on green.

Chen's chances of landing on purple are not affected by the other players landing on green.

Chen's probability of landing on purple is decreased because the previous players all landed on green.

Answer:

1/4

Explanation:

They are equally divided and there are a total 4 sections.

To find probability for yellow:

Numerator : how many yellows sections there are

Denominator : total sections there are

Therefore, the probability would be 1 in 4 chances.
