Question 349586: suppose the probability of spinning a 5 on a spinner is 3/4. What is the probabilty of not spinning a 5 on that same spinner? Answer by Fombitz(32388) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! For any event A,
P(A)+P(not A)=1

.
In this case,
P(5)+P(not 5)=1
3/4+P(not 5)=1
P(not 5)=1/4
