Question

A spinner contains the numbers 1 through 50. What is the probability that the spinner will land on a number that is not a multiple of 8?

Answer 1

22/25

Explanation:

Multiples of 8 are 8,16,24,32,40,48

That means there are 6 multiples of 8

50 -6 = 44

There are 44 non multiples of 8

P( non multiples of 8) = non multiples of 8 / total

= 44/50

=22/25
