Question

Three spinners numbered 1 through 12 are spun. What is the probability of spinning a five on the first spinner, an even number on the second spinner, and a multiple of 4 on the third spinner?

1/96
1/72
7/12
5/6

Answer 1

`(1)/(96)`

Explanation:

Spinning a 5 is
`(1)/(12)`

Spinning even is
`(1)/(2)`

Spinning multiple of 4 is
`(1)/(4)`

`(1)/(12) *(1)/(2) *(1)/(4)`
`=(1)/(96)`
