Question

You spin a spinner below. What is the probability of it landing on a blue space?1/21/31/62/3

Answer 1

Probability is computed as follows:

$\text{probability = }\frac{\text{ number of favorable outcomes}}{\text{ total possible outcomes}}$

There are 6 possible outcomes, 2 of them are blue, then the probability of the spinner landing on a blue space is:

$\text{probability = }\frac{2}{6}=\frac{1}{3}$
