The spinner is divided into 8 equal sections and the arrow is spun one time. What is the probability of the arrow landing on a number less than 4? Determine the likelihood of this event.

ANSWER:
The probability is 75%
STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:
The probability would be the quotient of the number of times it can occur and the total number of options (that is, 8):
The numbers less than 4 are 1, 2 and 3.
These numbers are 6 times on the spinner therefore
[tex]p=\frac{6}{8}=\frac{3}{4}=0.75=75\text{\%}[/tex]
