Probability and Outcomes with Spinners

The video tutorial explains how to calculate the probability of landing on a number less than six using a spinner with eight equal sections. It covers determining total and favorable outcomes, and expresses probability as a fraction, decimal, and percentage. Theoretical probability is also discussed, illustrating expected outcomes over multiple spins.

What is the total number of possible outcomes when using the spinner?

• 9

• 8

• 7

• 6

Which of the following numbers is NOT a favorable outcome for landing on a number less than six?

• 6

• 5

• 3

• 4

How many favorable outcomes are there for landing on a number less than six?

• 5

• 4

• 6

• 3

What is the probability of landing on a number less than six as a fraction?

• 5/8

• 3/8

• 6/8

• 4/8

Convert the probability of landing on a number less than six to a decimal.

• 0.875

• 0.625
