A spinner has ten equal-size sections numbered from 1 to 10.
Find the probability of each event when you spin the spinner.
6. P(even or multiple of 5) = P(even) + P(multiple of 5)
= 5/10 + 2/10 = 7/10
-----------------------------------
7. P(multiple of 3 or multiple of 4) = P(mult of 3) + P(mult of 4)
= 3/10 + 2/10 = 5/10 = 1/2
