Question

a spinner with 10 equally sized slices is shown below. (3 slices are yellow, 2 are red, and 5 are blue.) the dial is spun and stops on a slice. what is the probability that the dial stops on a yellow slice? write your answer as a fraction or a whole number.

Explanation:

Step1: Identify favorable and total outcomes

Favorable outcomes (yellow slices) = 3, total outcomes (total slices) = 10.

Step2: Apply probability formula

Probability $P=\frac{\text{Favorable outcomes}}{\text{Total outcomes}}=\frac{3}{10}$.

Answer:

$\frac{3}{10}$
