Question

this spinner has 8 equal parts. 2 parts are purple, 3 parts are red, 2 parts are yellow, and 1 part is blue. landing on red or yellow is: impossible, unlikely, equally likely, likely, certain

Explanation:

Step1: Count total parts

The spinner has 8 equal - sized parts.

Step2: Count red and yellow parts

There are 3 red parts and 2 yellow parts. So in total, there are 3 + 2=5 red or yellow parts.

Step3: Calculate probability

The probability of landing on red or yellow is $\frac{5}{8}$. Since $\frac{5}{8}> \frac{1}{2}$, it is likely.

Answer:

Likely
