Hallie is trying to win the grand prize on a game show. Should she try her luck by spinning a wheel with 6 equal sections labeled 1 to 6 and hope she gets a 5, or should she roll two number cubes and hope she gets the same number on both cubes? Explain.

Respuesta :

Her chances are the same either way.

The chance of spinning a 5 on a spinner is 1/6, since there is 1 section marked 5 on the spinner out of 6 sections.

Rolling two number cubes, there are 36 outcomes.  Out of those, only 6 have the same number on both cubes.  This gives us a probability of 1/6.

She has the same theoretical probability either way.

Her chances are the same either way.
