Question 971717: in a game, a spinner with 8 equally sized sections is spun and a die is tossed. What is the probability of landing on an odd number on the spinner and rolling an even number on the die. Answer by Boreal(15235) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Independent events, so probabilities are multiplied
even number on a die is 3/6
spinner on an odd number is 4/8
Probability of even number on die, and odd number on spinner is 1/2 * 1/2 =1/4=0.25
