Ryan's mother baked 12 peanut butter cookies, 8 sugar cookies, and 4 chocolate chip cookies and put them all in a jar. Ryan wants to simulate picking a sugar cookie from the jar. Which simulation can correctly represent this situation?

rolling a die, where odd numbers represent sugar cookies and even numbers represent chocolate chip cookies

picking a card from a deck of cards, where hearts and diamonds represent peanut butter cookies, spades represent sugar cookies, and clubs represent chocolate chip cookies

spinning a spinner with six equal sections, where one section represents chocolate chip cookies, two sections represent sugar cookies, and three sections represent peanut butter cookies

using a number generator with the numbers from 1 to 10, where 1 through 7 represent peanut butter cookies, 8 and 9 represent sugar cookies, and 10 represents chocolate chip cookies

Spinning a spinner with 6 equal sections, where one section represents chocolate chip cookies, two sections represent sugar cookies, and three sections represent peanut butter cookies.

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, you have 12 peanut butter cookies, 8 sugar cookies, and 4 chocolate cookies. They all add together a total of 24 cookies.

Next, the spinner got 6 equal sections, so each section is [tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex] of it.

Now, if you divide all cookies (including the total) by 4, you now have 3 peanut butter cookies, 2 sugar cookies and 1 chocolate cookies, adding a total of 6 cookies. Which you now can compare with the sections of the spinner getting one section representing chocolate chip cookies, two sections representing sugar cookies, and three sections representing peanut butter cookies.

Have a nice day!
