Hello!
As this is a compound event (is made up of two events), we multiply our two probabilities to find the final probability.
First of all, we have a 1/9 chance of getting a 3, and then another 1/9 chance of getting a 6. Therefore, we multiply.
[tex] \frac{1}{9} (\frac{1}{9} )=\frac{1}{81} [/tex]
Therefore, we have a 1/81 or about 1.2% chance of this event occurring.
I hope this helps!
Answer:
The answer is [tex]\frac{1}{81}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets assume the spinner is fair spinner.
On the first spin, the probability of any specific number from 1 to nine inclusive is 1/9.
During the second spin, the same value of probability will apply.
The two probabilities are independent of each other.
Hence, the probability that the first number is 3 and the second is a 6 is given by :
[tex]\frac{1}{9}\times \frac{1}{9} =\frac{1}{81}[/tex]
