Concept explainers
To determine probability of given event.
Answer to Problem 34SPR
P(pointer landing on blue)
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
Here we have to find P(pointer landing on blue)
To determine this we shall find the fraction of
Hence the fraction of angle of blue color is
Now probability of the event will be same as the fraction of blue color as total possibilities of rotation of pointer can be 360 (considering for each degree)
Hence,
P(pointer landing on blue)
