Question

The spinner shown is divided into congruent sections that are labeled from 1 to 7.5362.71If the spinner is spun one time, what is the probability of the arrow NOT landing on a section labeled with aneven number?

Answer 1

If the spinner DOES NOT land in an even number, it will land in an odd number.

From 1 to 7 there are 4 odd numbers: 1, 3, 5 and 7

Thereby, the probability of NOT landing on an even number is:

$\frac{4}{7}$
