Use an online spinner to generate a wheel with four equal sections. Use the
letters of the word MATH as the labels
a. What is the probability of landing on the letter A in a single spin?
The probability of landing on the letter A in a single spin is 1 out of 4, or 1/4, since there are four equal sections on the wheel and only one of them is labeled with the letter A.
how did you get that answer
To find the probability of landing on a specific section of the spinner, you need to compare the number of favorable outcomes (the desired section) to the total number of possible outcomes (the total number of sections on the spinner).
In this case, the desired outcome is landing on the letter A, which corresponds to one section out of the four equal sections on the spinner (labeled with the letters M, A, T, and H). Therefore, the probability of landing on the letter A in a single spin is 1 out of 4, or 1/4.
