Question

for the spinner above the probability of landing on black is 1/2 and the probability of landing on red is 1/3 supposed it is spun three times.
what is the probability it will land on the white all three times

Answer 1

The probability it will land on the white all three times is 1 /216.

What is probability?

Probability means possibility. It is a branch of mathematics that deals with the occurrence of a random event.

probability of landing on black = 1/2

probability of landing on red  = 1/3

first need to calculate the probability of the spinner landing on white

we know that the sum of all three probabilities must be equal to 1.

So, we subtract the given probabilities from 1 and get the probability of it landing on white three times

= 1 - 1/3 - 1/2

= 1 - (2 + 3)/6

= 6/6 - 5/6

= 1/6.

probability it will land on the white all three times,

P = 1/6 × 1/6 × 1/6

P = 1/216.
