In excercises 34-36,use the spinner to find the probability. The spinner is divided into equal parts.The spinner numbers are 1-12 in a circle\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "35. What are the odds in favor of stopping on a multiple of 3?\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "---------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "The multiples of 3 are 3,6,9,12
\n" ); document.write( "There are four multiples of three.
\n" ); document.write( "--------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Probability(landing on a multiple of 3) = 4/12 = 1/3
\n" ); document.write( "---------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Odds \"in favor of\" an event = P(event happens)/P(event does not happen)
\n" ); document.write( "----------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Your Problem:
\n" ); document.write( "Odds in favor of stopping on multiple of 3) = (1/3)/(2/3) = 1/2 = 1:2
\n" ); document.write( "=======================
