Question

A spinner with 9 equal sections is numbered 1 through 9. The probability of spinning a 1 or a 9 is 2/9 .

What is the probability of not spinning a 1 or a 9?

Enter your answer as a fraction, in simplest form, in the box.

Answer 1

7/9, because 1 - 2/9 = 7/9

Answer 2

The answer would be 7/9 because you have 9 equal sections and you do not want to role a 1 or a 9 so you would subtract 2/9 from 9/9 which would be 7/9.
