One spinner is divided into five equal sections numbered 1 to 5. A second spinner is divided into seven equal sections numbered 6 to 12. How many total outcomes are there if both spinners are spun?
Please help.
since the two spinners are independent of each other, just multiply their values. 5*7 = 35
Thank you!
To find the total number of outcomes when both spinners are spun, we need to multiply the number of outcomes for each spinner.
The first spinner has 5 sections, so it has 5 possible outcomes.
The second spinner has 7 sections, so it has 7 possible outcomes.
To find the total number of outcomes, we multiply the number of outcomes for each spinner:
Total outcomes = 5 outcomes (for the first spinner) × 7 outcomes (for the second spinner)
Total outcomes = 35.
Therefore, there are 35 total outcomes when both spinners are spun.
To find the total outcomes when both spinners are spun, we multiply the number of outcomes for each spinner.
The first spinner has 5 equal sections labeled from 1 to 5, so it has a total of 5 outcomes.
The second spinner has 7 equal sections labeled from 6 to 12, so it has a total of 7 outcomes.
To find the total number of outcomes when both spinners are spun, we multiply the number of outcomes of the first spinner by the number of outcomes of the second spinner:
Total outcomes = Number of outcomes for spinner 1 * Number of outcomes for spinner 2
In this case, Total outcomes = 5 * 7 = 35.
So, there are a total of 35 outcomes when both spinners are spun.
