You spin the spinner once.

Question

(The spinner has 5 choices and the choices are 3, 4, 5, 6, 7)

What is P(greater than 6)?

Answer 1

P(greater than 6) = Number of favorable outcomes / Total number of outcomes

In this case, there is only one favorable outcome (7) and 5 total outcomes.

P(greater than 6) = 1/5

Therefore, the probability of spinning a number greater than 6 is 1/5 or 0.20 (20%).
