Select the correct answer.A spinner is divided into eight equal parts numbered 1 to 8. If the spinner is spun once, what is the probability that it stops on a number that is a multiple of 2?A-0.25B-0.37C-0.5D. 1

Answer :

EXPLANATION

From number 1 to 8, the multiples of 2 are as follows

[tex]2,4,6,8[/tex]

Therefore, the probability that the spinner stops on a number that is a multiple of 2 becomes

[tex]Pr(2_{multiple})=\frac{number\text{ }of\text{ }multiples\text{ }of\text{ }two}{total\text{ numbers in the spinner}}=\frac{4}{8}=\frac{1}{2}=0.5[/tex]

Answer: 0.5
