A spinner is spun that has 15 equal-sized sections numbered 1 to 15. What is the probability the spinner lands on a multiple of five?

Respuesta :

Answer:

1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

P(event) = # of favorable outcomes / # of total outcomes. Multiples of 5 are 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40 ... and there are 3 multiples of 5 within 1 to 15. So the # of favorable outcomes is 3. # of total outcomes is 15 because there are 15 equal-sized sections.

P = 3/15 = 1/5
