Spinner #3: 1/3 is 4, 1/3 is 2, 1/3 is 6
The spinners are spun and the results are added. Find the P(sum is 4) Answer by fractalier(6550) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Since the only way we can get a sum of four is when both spinners land on a two, we have
P(sum is 4) = (1/4)(1/3) = 1/12
