Diamond is playing a game. In the game she has to spin a spinner
that is divided into 4 equal sections of green, red, blue, and yellow.
What is the probability that on her first spin she will land on green
and then red on her second spin?

Respuesta :

Answer:

1/16

Step-by-step explanation:

for the first spin the chances of it landing on green is 1/4 and the second time is 1/4 chance it wil land on red. 1/4x1/4=1/16

Answer:  1/16

In decimal form, this is equivalent to 0.0625

=====================================================

Explanation:

Each of the four sections are of equal area, so that means the probability of landing on any given color is 1/4.

The probability of landing on green first is 1/4, then followed by red is another 1/4. We multiply these fractions. This is valid because each event of spinning the spinner is independent of one another. None of the spins affect any others.

We then get (1/4)*(1/4) = (1*1)/(4*4) = 1/16
