Question

Ana will spin the spinner. What is the probability that Ana's spin will land on yellow? If there are 2 Red Sections, 3 Blue Sections, 4 yellow Sections, 3 Black Sections.

Answer 1

The probability is 1/3

Explanation:

Here, we are interested in calculating the probability that the spinner will land on the yellow section.

Firstly, we need to calculate the total number of sections. That would be = 2 + 3 + 4 + 3 = 12 sections

Now, the probability that the spinner will land on the yellow section = number of yellow sections/total number of sections

There are four yellow sections

Thus, the probability of the spinner falling on a yellow section = 4/12 = 1/3
