Question

A spinner is spun twice with 4 equal sections colored purple, orange, green, and blue. What is the P(spinning two Greens)?

1 over 2
1 over 4
1 over 8
1 over 16

Answer 1

1 over 16 or 1/16

Explanation:

All thanks to the multiplication of probability rule, if you have the probability of 2 events and you want to know what the probability of them both happening is you simply multiply the two probabilities.

So the probability is 1/4 x 1/4=1/16

the probability is 1/16.
