Wheel Probability


1. **State the problem:** We have a spinning wheel with 3 green sectors, 1 blue sector, and 1 red sector. We want to find the probability of landing on a green sector and the probability of landing on a non-green sector. 2. **Calculate total number of sectors:** Total sectors = 3 (green) + 1 (blue) + 1 (red) = 5 sectors. 3. **Probability of green sector:** Probability is the number of green sectors divided by total sectors. $$P(\text{green}) = \frac{3}{5}$$ 4. **Probability of non-green sector:** Non-green sectors are blue and red, total 2 sectors. $$P(\text{non-green}) = \frac{2}{5}$$ 5. **Final answers:** - Probability of green sector: $\frac{3}{5}$ - Probability of non-green sector: $\frac{2}{5}$
