You spin a spinner that has 15 equal-sized sections numbered 1 to 15. Find the theoretical probability of landing on the given section(s) of the spinner.
P (lessthan5)
You spin a spinner that has 15 equal-sized sections numbered 1 to 15 .Find the theoretical probability of landing on the given section(s) of the spinner.
Answer to Problem 5P
Explanation of Solution
Given:
Given section is :
P(less than 5)
Formula Used :
Calculation:
The total number of sections in the spinner = 15
The favourable number of outcomes of getting a number less than 5 = 4 (since there are 4 numbers less than 5 ={1,2,3,4})
Hence , the theoretical probability of landing on the section with number less than 5 is
