Answer

Explanation:

Step1: Count total sections

The spinner has 12 equal - sized sections.

Step2: Calculate P(Yellow)

There are 2 yellow sections. So $P(\text{Yellow})=\frac{2}{12}=\frac{1}{6}\approx0.167 = 16.7%$

Step3: Calculate P(Green)

There are 3 green sections. So $P(\text{Green})=\frac{3}{12}=\frac{1}{4}=0.25 = 25%$

Step4: Calculate P(Blue)

There are 4 blue sections. So $P(\text{Blue})=\frac{4}{12}=\frac{1}{3}\approx0.333 = 33.3%$

Step5: Calculate P(Red)

There are 3 red sections. So $P(\text{Red})=\frac{3}{12}=\frac{1}{4}=0.25 = 25%$

Answer:

Fraction Decimal Percent
P(Yellow) $\frac{1}{6}$ 0.167 16.7%
P(Green) $\frac{1}{4}$ 0.25 25%
P(Blue) $\frac{1}{3}$ 0.333 33.3%
P(Red) $\frac{1}{4}$ 0.25 25%
