can you help me find the probability to the question?
A spinner like the one shown is ued in a game. Determine the probability of each outcome if the spinner is equally likely to land on each section. Express each probability as a fraction and as a percent. Spinner has #s 1-16 in order
1. P(10)
P(10) = 1/16 = 6.25%
Were there supposed to be others?
Yes they had multiple questions. I just needed an example... thanks for the help

To find the probability of landing on a specific number on the spinner, divide the number of favorable outcomes (in this case, landing on 10) by the total number of possible outcomes (16 in this case).
So, to find P(10), we have:
Number of favorable outcomes = 1 (because there is only one section with the number 10)
Total number of possible outcomes = 16
Therefore,
P(10) = 1/16
To express the probability as a percent, you can multiply the fraction by 100:
P(10) = 1/16 * 100% = 6.25%
So, the probability of landing on the number 10 is 1/16 or 6.25%.
