Please show me how to do these problems and please explains.
\n" ); document.write( "1.) A farmer has four sheepdogs and three beagles. If he randomly chooses a dog to accompany him on a walk, what is the probability of him taking a walk with sheepdog?
\n" ); document.write( "Probability of event E = (# of ways E can happen)/(# of possible outcomes)
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "P(sheepdog) = 4/7
\n" ); document.write( "---------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "2.) Gordon spins a spinner with equal-sized sections numbered 1-6. In one spin, what is the likelihood that the spinner will stop on a 1 or a 5?
\n" ); document.write( "P(1 or 5) = 2/6 = 1/3
\n" ); document.write( "---------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "3.) When two number cubes labeled 1-6 are rolled, what is the probability that the result will be two 4's ?
\n" ); document.write( "P(two 4's) = 1/36
\n" ); document.write( "--------------------------------\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "4.) Joanne is guessing which day in November is Bess's birthday. Joanne know that Bess's birthday does not fall on an odd-numbered day. What is the probability that Joanne will guess the correct day on her first try?
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "November has 30 days (15 even and 15 odd)
\n" ); document.write( "P(Joanne chooses the correct day) = 1/15\r
