Question

On a spinner there are 10 numbers. What is the probability that the spinner will land on a 5 in two successive (two in a row) spins?

Answer 1

The probability that the spinner land on 5 in two successive spins is 1/100.

Explanation:

Total numbers on the spinner = 10

Probability that the spinner land on 5 for the 1st time = 1/10

Probability that the spinner land on 5 in two successive spins = (1/10) x (1/10)

= 1/100

The probability that the spinner land on 5 in two successive spins is 1/100.
