Spinning Wheel Probability


1. Problem: A spinning wheel has 3 green sectors, 1 blue sector, and 1 red sector, totaling 5 sectors. 2. Calculate the probability of each event as the ratio of favorable outcomes to total outcomes. 3. (i) Probability of green sector = number of green sectors / total sectors = $\frac{3}{5}$. 4. (ii) Probability of blue sector = number of blue sectors / total sectors = $\frac{1}{5}$. 5. (iii) Probability of non-blue sector = 1 - P(blue) = $1 - \frac{1}{5} = \frac{4}{5}$. 6. (iv) Probability of red sector = number of red sectors / total sectors = $\frac{1}{5}$. 7. (v) Probability of non-red sector = 1 - P(red) = $1 - \frac{1}{5} = \frac{4}{5}$. Final answers: - Green: $\frac{3}{5}$ - Blue: $\frac{1}{5}$ - Non-blue: $\frac{4}{5}$ - Red: $\frac{1}{5}$ - Non-red: $\frac{4}{5}$
