1.
A spinner is divided into 4 equal sectors numbered 1 to 4. Calculate the probability that the spinner lands on an odd number.
[2 marks]2.
If a spinner is divided into 6 equal sectors numbered A to F, what is the probability it lands on a vowel (A or E)?
[2 marks]3.
Construct a spinner divided into 8 equal sectors, with four sectors labeled 'X' and four labeled 'Y'. What is the probability of landing on 'X'?
[3 marks]4.
A spinner is divided into 3 equal parts: 1 red, 1 blue, and 1 green. What is the probability it does not land on red?
[2 marks]5.
A spinner with 5 equal sectors numbered 1 to 5 is spun twice. What is the probability that both spins land on an even number?
[4 marks]6.
A spinner is divided into 10 equal sectors numbered 1 to 10. If you spin twice, what is the probability that the sum of the two numbers is 11?
[4 marks]7.
A spinner has 5 sectors numbered 1 to 5. The sectors are colored so that 2 are red, 2 are blue, and 1 is yellow. If the spinner lands on yellow, what is the probability it was spun again and lands on blue?
[3 marks]8.
Construct a spinner with 12 sectors, where 4 are labeled 'A', 4 are 'B', and 4 are 'C'. Calculate the probability of landing on 'C'.
[3 marks]9.
A spinner is divided into 8 equal parts: 3 are green, 2 are yellow, and 3 are red. What is the probability it lands on red or yellow?
[2 marks]10.
A spinner with 6 sectors numbered 1 to 6 is spun twice. What is the probability that the sum of the two numbers is even?
[4 marks]11.
Identify and correct the mistake: A spinner divided into 4 equal parts, labeled 1 to 4. The probability of landing on numbers greater than 2 is 1/2.
