Use the spinner to find each theoretical probability





P (an even number)
P (a number greater than 3)
P (an odd number)

Respuesta :

So to do this, you would use the formula: 

Number of favorable outcomes
________________________

Total number of outcomes.


In the first question you are asked: Probability of an even number being spun. We can see that there are 4 even numbers, which is our favorable outcome and that over the number of outcomes, which is 8, would be 4/8 = 0.5 or 50%. Therefore the answer to #1 is 0.5 as a decimal or 50% as a percent. (Do it the way the directions tell you to).

In the second question you are asked the probability to spin a number greater than 3. This does not include 3, so you have 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8. That is 5 numbers. 5 numbers divided by the total number of outcomes is 5/8, which is equal to 0.625, or 62.5%. Therefore the answer to #2 is 0.625 as a decimal or 62.5% as a percent.

The third question asks for the probability that an odd number would be spun. We can see the odd numbers are: 1,3,5,7. This is 4 favorable outcomes divided by 8, the total number of outcomes. 4/8 is equal to 0.5 or 50%. Therefore the answer to #3 is 50% as a percent or 0.5 as decimal.
