To find the probability of winning on both spins, we need to multiply the individual probabilities of winning on each spin.
The probability of winning on each spin is 1/8, because there are 8 equal sectors and only 1 of them is blue.
So, the probability of winning on both spins is (1/8) * (1/8) = 1/64.
Therefore, the probability that Keisha will win a prize on both spins is 1/64.
My shown work for this problem would be:
(1/8) * (1/8) = 1/64
The probability of winning on each spin is 1/8, because there are 8 equal sectors and only 1 of them is blue.
So, the probability of winning on both spins is (1/8) * (1/8) = 1/64.
Therefore, the probability that Keisha will win a prize on both spins is 1/64.
My shown work for this problem would be:
(1/8) * (1/8) = 1/64
