Question

The table shows the results of spins Peter made.

Spinner Results
Color Number of Times
Red 2
Yellow 3
Blue 6
Green 7
Using these results, what is the probability the spinner will land on yellow during the next spin?

Answer 1

3/18 or 1/6

the first step is to find the total amount of the number of colors on the spinner

that means 2+3+6+7=18 total number of colors on the spinner

the probability is equal to the Original amount/Outcome

the question only wants to know what is the probability of the spinner that would land on yellow and there are only 3 yellows out of 18 total amount of colors on theh spinner

so in that case the probability would be 3/18 or 1/6 if simplified
