To find the probability of getting green and tails, we need to divide the number of times Ralph got green and tails (4) by the total number of times he flipped the coin and spun the spinner (16).
Probability = Number of favorable outcomes / Total number of outcomes
Probability = 4 / 16
Probability = 0.25
Therefore, the probability of getting green and tails is 0.25 or 25%.
n a board game, you must flip a coin and spin a spinner. You can only start the game if you land on tails on the coin and land on green on the spinner. Ralph flips a coin and spins the spinner 16 times. he gets 4 out of 25 that is green and tails. what is the probability of getting green and tails

the spinner has 5 sections
If the spinner has 5 sections and Ralph got green and tails on 4 out of 16 flips, then the probability of getting green and tails can be calculated as follows:
Number of sections that are green on the spinner: 1
Total possible outcomes when spinning the spinner: 5
Probability of landing on green on the spinner = 1 / 5
Number of times Ralph landed on green and tails: 4
Total number of times he flipped the spinner: 16
Probability of getting green and tails = Number of times Ralph got green and tails / Total number of times spinner was flipped
Probability = 4 / 16
Probability = 0.25
Therefore, the probability of landing on green and tails is 0.25 or 25%.
