The area of a checker board is 64 square units. 32 of the squares are red, and the other 32 are black.
If you used it as a dart board, what is the probability that a dart will land in a black square?
a. 0.75
b. 0.50
c. 0.32
d. 0.25
The probability that a dart will land in a black square is equal to the number of black squares divided by the total number of squares on the checker board. In this case, there are 32 black squares and a total of 64 squares.
Probability = Number of black squares / Total number of squares = 32/64 = 0.5
Therefore, the answer is (b) 0.50.
