URGANT NEEDED RIGHT NOW MUCH APPRECIATED:

A fair spinner has 9 equal sections: 3 red, 4 blue and 2 green. 
It is spun twice. 
What is the probability of getting blue both times?​

Respuesta :

Answer:

Probability of getting blue both times = [tex]\frac{16}{81}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

A fair spinner has 9 equal sections: 3 red, 4 blue and 2 green.  

It is spun twice.  

We have to find the probability of getting blue both times?.

For both times , the probability of getting blue is the same.

Probability = [tex]\frac{number of favorable cases}{total number of cases}[/tex]

The number of favorable cases for blue = 4

Total number of cases = 9

Hence the probability = [tex]\frac{4}{9}[/tex]

We have to get it two times so final probability = [tex]\frac{4}{9}\times \frac{4}{9} = \frac{16}{81}[/tex]
