Full solution

Q. A spinner is divided into 55 equal sections. When the spinner is spun, what is the probability of the events listed below?
  1. Identify sections: Since the spinner is divided into 55 equal sections, each section has an equal chance of being landed on. To find the probability of landing on one section, we use the formula for probability: Probability =Number of favorable outcomesTotal number of outcomes= \frac{\text{Number of favorable outcomes}}{\text{Total number of outcomes}}. Here, the number of favorable outcomes is 11 (landing on one specific section), and the total number of outcomes is 55 (all sections).
  2. Calculate probability: Calculate the probability: Probability = 15\frac{1}{5}.
