Even Number Probability
1. **State the problem:**
We have a spinner numbered 1 to 10 with equal probability for each number. We want the probability that the spinner lands on an even number every time in 9 spins.
2. **Determine the probability of landing on an even number in one spin:**
The even numbers are 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, so there are 5 even numbers out of 10 total numbers.
The probability of landing on an even number in one spin is $$\frac{5}{10} = 0.5$$.
3. **Calculate the probability of landing on an even number in all 9 spins:**
Since each spin is independent, multiply the probability 9 times:
$$P = 0.5^{9}$$
4. **Calculate the numerical value:**
$$0.5^{9} = \frac{1}{2^{9}} = \frac{1}{512} \approx 0.001953125$$
5. **Convert to ordinary number:**
The probability is approximately $$0.00195$$ (rounded to five decimal places).
**Final answer:**
The probability that the spinner lands on an even number every time in 9 spins is approximately $$0.00195$$.
