Bella wins if it lands on blue Claire wins if it lands on any other color. What is the sample space?

Answer 1

Given:

The spinner has 5 equal-sized sections: one yellow (Y), one red (R), one blue (B), one green (G), and one purple (P).

Required:

We need to find the sample space.

Explanation:

We know that the sample space = the total possible outcomes,

The possible outcomes are one yellow (Y), one red (R), one blue (B), one green (G), and one purple (P).

There are 5 equal-sized sections.

$Sample\text{ space =\textbraceleft Y,R,B,G,P\textbraceright}$$n(s)=5$

Final answer:

$Sample\text{ space =\textbraceleft Y,R,B,G,P\textbraceright}$
