The calculated probability of an odd number, then blue is 16/93

How to find the probability of an odd number, then blue?

From the question, we have the following parameters that can be used in our computation:

Month of March and the Spinner

Where, we have

Days in March = 31

Odd days = 16

Also, we have

Spinner section = 3

Blue = 1

Using the above as a guide, we have the following:

P = P(odd) * P(blue)

So, we have

P = 16/31 * 1/3

Evaluate

P = 16/93

Hence, the probability of an odd number, then blue is 16/93
