If a dart hits the board below, what is the probability that it will land in the circle? 20 3 P (circle) = favorable possible = Area of circle Area of square P (circle)
Points A, B, C, D, and E represent points on an interstate highway. A B C D E If a random accident occurs on AE, find the probability that it will occur between B and C. P(accident is in BC) = BC AE = P(accident is in BC) = 50 = 0.16 = 16 %
Find the probability that the spinner will land on region D. A B C D P(D)= degrees in D degrees in circle P(D)=
Find the probability that a dart will land in the red area P(red area) = middle - small large P(red area) = red area total area
