Group of answer choices
1 over 36
1 over 18
1 over 6
1 over 3
The probability of the spinner stopping at green is 1 out of 3, since there are three equal sectors and one is green.
The probability of selecting a yellow card is 1 out of 6, since there are 6 cards in total and one is yellow.
To find the probability of both events happening, you multiply the individual probabilities together:
1/3 * 1/6 = 1/18
Therefore, the probability that the spinner stops at green and a yellow card is selected is 1 out of 18.
The correct answer is 1 over 18.
