Question

*MAKE SURE YOUR ANSWER IS CORRECT* // *NEED HELP* Spinner A and Spinner B have 5 color choices each: red, yellow, blue, green and pink. What is the probability of getting a green and pink combination from the area model?

Answer 1

P = 2 / 25

Explanation:

If we assume that the combination of green and pink means, 1 green and 1 pink, then we can say the following:

P = 1 / 25 + 1 / 25

P = 2 / 25

This is because the squares where green and pink intersect only occurs twice.

Hence, the probability is P = 2 / 25.

Cheers.
