Answer:

a) Blue

b) 1/2

Explanation:

a) The colors on the spinner are blue (B), green (G), and yellow (Y).

(B) = 1/8

(G) = 4/8

(Y) = 3/8

The spinner is least likely to land on the color blue.

b) The probability that the spinner lands on the color green is 4/8. The spinner has 8 equal sections, 4 of the sections are green.

4/8 can be simplified to 1/2.

Hey there! :)

Answer:

a) Blue.

b) 1/2.

Explanation:

Find the probabilities for each color:

Blue: 1/8

Yellow: 3/8

Green: 4/8 or 1/2

a) The color that the spinner is the least likely to land on has the smallest probability, which in this instance, is blue.

b) The probability of the spinner landing on green can be determined by:

# of green sections /total

Therefore:

4 / 8

Simplify the fraction:

4 / 8 = 1 / 2.
