Respuesta :

the answer would be 1/3 .hope it helped.i did the quiz and got it right

Answer:

probability that the arrow will stop on the same letter twice = [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] (c).

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Maria will spin the arrow on the spinner 2 times.

To find : What is the probability that the arrow will stop on the same letter twice.

Solution : We have given a spinner that spin twice and stop on the same letter.

Formula for probability = [tex]\frac{number \ of \ favorable\ outcome}{Total \number\ of \possible \outcome}[/tex].

Here, total part of spinner = 3 and it spin two times

So, total possible outcome = 6.  Arrow ston on same letter twice( favorable outcome) =2.

Plugging the values in formula :

Probability =  [tex]\frac{2}{6}[/tex].

Probability =  [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex].

Therefore,  probability that the arrow will stop on the same letter twice = [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] (c).
