Question 826807: A spinner is colored by 3 different colors: yellow, blue and red in 12 equal sectors. After spinning the wheel, what is the probability that i. wheel stops at yellow color? ii. wheel stops at red color. iii. wheel stops at blue color.
here circle starts at zero degrees with[ y,r,y,b,r,y,r,b,b,y,b,b].
answers are 1/3
1/4
5/12
explain step by step procedure to this please

You can put this solution on YOUR website! After spinning the wheel, what is the probability that i. wheel stops at yellow color? ii. wheel stops at red color. iii. wheel stops at blue color.
here circle starts at zero degrees with[ y,r,y,b,r,y,r,b,b,y,b,b].
answers are 1/3
1/4
5/12
-----
Note: These answers are empirical probability numbers.
They are based on the sample of 12 spins indicated above.
yellow = 4/12 = 1/3
red = 3/12 = 1/4
blue = 5/12
=======================
The theoritical probability for each color would be 1/3
