Question 613296
Spin the Wheel In Exercises 17–24, consider the following wheel.
1;blue
2;purple
3;yellow
4;purple
5;red
6;red
7;red
8;blue
9;purple
10;yellow

If the wheel is spun and each section is equally likely to stop under the pointer, determine the probability that the pointer lands on an even number, given that the color is red.
---
Procedure:
Look at all the reds (that is your Universe for this problem).--there are 3
Count the number of reds that have an even number next to the word "red"
(that is the number of ways to succeed in this experiment).---there is 1
P(even | red) = 1/3
