If this spinner is to be spun once, how likely will it stop on a multiple of 9?

likely
impossible
unlikely
certain
if the spinners numbers are 1, 4, 7, 10, 13, 16, 19, 22, 25, 28

1 answer

To determine how likely the spinner is to stop on a multiple of 9, we first need to check which numbers on the spinner are multiples of 9.

The numbers on the spinner are: 1, 4, 7, 10, 13, 16, 19, 22, 25, 28

Now, let's find the multiples of 9 in this list:

  • The only multiples of 9 are 0, 9, 18, 27, etc.

Looking through the list provided, there are no multiples of 9.

Therefore, the probability of the spinner stopping on a multiple of 9 is 0.

Based on the options provided:

  • likely
  • impossible
  • unlikely
  • certain

The correct answer is impossible.
