This math topic focuses on calculating probabilities using spinners. Students are tasked with determining the likelihood of specific outcomes when spinning a spinner, such as landing on types of sports or numeric values (e.g., prime numbers or values less than 10). Each question requires expressing the probability as a fraction, encouraging practice in fraction representation and understanding of theoretical probability within different contexts. The problems are structured around single spins with multiple possible answers, enhancing students’ abilities to analyze and calculate probabilities from given scenarios.
