Question

I don't understand how to do this section of this worksheet. Can someone help me understand how to get the answer? I have a test tomorrow and I can't fail it.

Answer 1

see explanation

Explanation:

There are 4 sections on the spinner so each option is 1/4

1) 4 Ds = 1/4 × 1/4 × 1/4 × 1/4 × 3/4 × 3/4 = 9/4096

the other two spins can be A, B, or C (3/4)

2) 2As = 1/4 × 1/4 × 3/4 × 3/4 × 3/4 × 3/4

the other two spins can be B, C, or D (3/4)

3) 2As = 1/4 × 1/4 = 1/16 OR means add

3Bs = 1/4 × 1/4 × 1/4 = 1/64

1/16 + 1/64 = 5/64

4) at least 4 Cs = 1/4 × 1/4 × 1/4 × 1/4 =1/256
