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).
