Use a tree diagram or a table to determine how many possible outcomes there are when a spinner that has three equal parts labeled 1,2, and 3 is spun 3 times.
To determine the number of possible outcomes when a spinner is spun 3 times, we can use a tree diagram.
1st spin:
- 1st spin can result in 3 outcomes (1, 2, 3)
2nd spin:
- For each outcome of the 1st spin, there are 3 possible outcomes for the 2nd spin, resulting in a total of 3 * 3 = 9 outcomes
3rd spin:
- For each outcome of the 2nd spin, there are 3 possible outcomes for the 3rd spin, resulting in a total of 9 * 3 = 27 outcomes
Therefore, there are 27 possible outcomes when a spinner with three equal parts labeled 1, 2, and 3 is spun 3 times.
