Question

1. what is the chance of landing on a number divisible by 4?

options: \\(\frac{1}{4}\\), \\(\frac{1}{8}\\), \\(\frac{1}{2}\\), \\(\frac{1}{64}\\)

Explanation:

Step1: Count total sections

The spinner has 8 equal sections (numbers 1 - 8), so total outcomes = 8.

Step2: Identify numbers divisible by 4

Numbers divisible by 4: 4, 8. So favorable outcomes = 2.

Step3: Calculate probability

Probability = $\frac{\text{favorable}}{\text{total}}$ = $\frac{2}{8}$ = $\frac{1}{4}$.

Answer:

$\frac{1}{4}$ (the option corresponding to $\frac{1}{4}$)
