a circular dart board is divided into 4 sectors. 150^(0) of it is green, the second part is 90^(0) of the color red, 80^(0) is blue and 40^(0) is red. { please note that i have not make any errors in copying the question and i clearly specify that in my book the red color is mentioned two times}
\n" ); document.write( "------------
\n" ); document.write( "The total of the sectors = 360 degrees so I guess we can
\n" ); document.write( "assume there are 2 red sectors.
\n" ); document.write( "--------------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "calculate the probability that the dart hits
\n" ); document.write( ":1.the green sector:::P(green) = 150/360 = 5/12
\n" ); document.write( "-------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( ":2.the blue sector:::P(blue) = 80/360 = 2/9
\n" ); document.write( "-----------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( ":3.not blue:: P(not blue) = 7/9
\n" ); document.write( "-------------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( ":4.a red sector.:::P(red) = (90+40)/360 = 130/360 = 13/36
\n" ); document.write( "=======================================
