Question

The theoretical probability of a simple event is P(event) = number of favorable outcomestotal number of outcomes in a sample space EXAMPLE: A jar contains 10 green, 7 red, and 3 blue marbles. What is the probability of randomly picking a red marble? P(red) = number of red marblestotal number of marbles in the sample space=710+7+3=720 The probability of randomly picking a red marble is 720=0.35=35% Use the spinner below to complete the problem. Determine the probability of the spinner landing on a 3. (3 points) Enter the probability as a SIMPLIFIED fraction: Enter the probability as a decimal with two decimal places: Enter the probability as a percent: %

To determine the probability of the spinner landing on a 3, we first need to find the total number of possible outcomes on the spinner.

The spinner has numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6. Thus, there are 6 possible outcomes.

Next, we need to determine the number of favorable outcomes, which in this case is 1 (since there is only one 3 on the spinner).

So, P(landing on a 3) = 1/6

Simplified fraction: 1/6
Decimal: 0.17
Percent: 16.67%

I apologize for the error in my previous response. Let's correct that.

The probability of the spinner landing on a 3 is 1 favorable outcome (1 "3" on the spinner) out of 6 total possible outcomes (numbers 1 to 6 on the spinner).

Therefore, the probability of landing on a 3 is:

1/6

Simplified fraction: 1/6
Decimal: 0.17
Percent: 16.67%

Thank you for pointing out the mistake.

Answer 4

Caleb is creating a sign with the words T H E U N I T E D S T A T E S O F A M E R I C A with each letter having its own cutout. If a letter is randomly chosen, complete each part below. (3 points) Part 1. What is the probability Caleb will choose the letter A? Enter the probability as a decimal rounded to the thousandth place. (3 digits) Part 2. What is the probability Caleb will choose a consonant? Enter the probability as a decimal rounded to the thousandth place. (3 digits) Part 3. What is the probability Caleb will choose a letter from the word “of”? Enter the probability as a decimal rounded to the thousandth place. (3 digits)

Part 1:

Number of A's in the phrase: 3 (from "THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA")
Total number of letters: 28 (from "THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA")

Probability of choosing the letter A: 3/28 ≈ 0.107

Part 2:
Number of consonants in the phrase: 17
Total number of letters: 28

Probability of choosing a consonant: 17/28 ≈ 0.607

Part 3:
Number of letters in "of": 2 ("of")
Total number of letters: 28

Probability of choosing a letter from "of": 2/28 ≈ 0.071

Let's correct the calculation.

Part 1:
Number of A's in the phrase: 3 (from "THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA")
Total number of letters: 28 (from "THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA")

Probability of choosing the letter A: 3/28 ≈ 0.107

Part 2:
Number of consonants in the phrase: 17
Total number of letters: 28

Probability of choosing a consonant: 17/28 ≈ 0.607

Part 3:
Number of letters in "of": 1 ("of")
Total number of letters: 28

Probability of choosing a letter from "of": 1/28 ≈ 0.035
