Question

a game spinner has regions that are numbered 1 through 8. if the spinner is used twice, what is the probability that the first number is a 3 and the second is a 7?

Answer 1

Each number on the spinner has an equally likely chance of being selected, 1/8. For this type of problem you multiply the probabilities.
P(3) = 1/8
P(7) = 1/8
(1/8) * (1/8) = 1/64

Answer 2

The probability that the first number is a 3 and the second is a 7 is 1/64

What is probability?

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

Given:

spinner had region numbered from 1 to 8

So, the probability on the spinner has an equally likely chance of being selected= 1/8.

P(3) = 1/8

P(7) = 1/8

Thus, probability that the first number is a 3 and the second is a 7

=(1/8) * (1/8)

= 1/64
