Answer correctly

You and your friend are playing a game where you spin a circular spinner with nine numbered sections of
equal size. In this game, you win if the spinner lands on 1, 4, or 7. Your friend wins if the spinner lands on
2, 5, or 8. You tie if the spinner lands on 3, 6, or 9.
All the possible outcomes of the game are listed in the sample space
S = {1,2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9}.
If we take A ={1,3,4,6, 7,9} as a subset of the sample space, which of the statements below
describe the subset A?
Choose all answers that apply:
A
The subset consists of all the outcomes where your friend loses or there is a tie.
B
The subset consists of all the outcomes where your friend ties.
The subset consists of all the outcomes where there is not a tie and your friend does not win.
D
