Question

A spinner has 8 ​equal-sized sections. To win the​ game, the pointer must land on a blue section. Find P(blue).

Answer 1

P(blue)= (number of blue sections/8). simplify if needed

Explanation:

There are 8 equally sized sections, meaning that the probability of landing on each specific section the same. If only one out of 8 of those sections are blue, then the probability is 1 out of the 8 possible outcomes.

If there are multiple blue, then the answer is number of blue/8

remember to simplify if needed, or convert to decimal if needed.
