Multiple Choice Answers
Rolling a prime number on a six-sided die, numbered from 1 to 6.
Spinning a spinner divided into four equal-sized sections colored red/green/yellow/blue and landing on pink.
Winning a raffle that sold a total of 100 tickets, if you buy 72 tickets.
Reaching into a bag full of 35 strawberry chews and 5 cherry chews without looking and pulling out a strawberry chew.

Answer 1

Answer: Reaching into the bag and pulling out a strawberry chew.

Calculations:
- Die prime: 3/6 = 0.50
- Spinner pink: 0/4 = 0
- Raffle (72 of 100): 72/100 = 0.72
- Strawberry chew: 35/(35+5) = 35/40 = 0.875

0.875 is the largest, so the strawberry chew is most likely.
