Q3 · Examiner's Use 2 1 1 10 2 1 The diagram shows a spinner with six numbered sections
3 Examiner's Use 2 1 1 10 2 1 The diagram shows a spinner with six numbered sections. Some of the sections are shaded. Each time the spinner is spun it stops on one of the six sections. It is equally likely that it stops on any one of the sections. (a) The spinner is spun once. Find the probability that it stops on (i) a shaded section, Answer(a)(i) [1] (ii) a section numbered 1, Answer(a)(ii) [1] (iii) a shaded section numbered 1, Answer(a)(iii) [1] (iv) a shaded section or a section numbered 1. Answer(a)(iv) [1] For (b) The spinner is now spun twice. Examiner's Use Find the probability that the total of the two numbers is (i) 20, Answer(b)(i) [2] (ii) 11. Answer(b)(ii) [2] (c) (i) The spinner stops on a shaded section. Find the probability that this section is numbered 2. Answer(c)(i) [1] (ii) The spinner stops on a section numbered 2.
