Answer:

1 over 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

a spinner and 4 cards

A Spinner ⇒ 5 equal sectors;Color: Blue,Purple,Yellow,Red,Green

Arrow point at purple

Four cards ⇒ Color : Red,Yellow,Blue,Pink

Jane spins the spinner & selects card without looking.

To Find - Probability spinner stops at purple & select pink card.

Solve:

Multiply 4 (the number of cards) with 5 (The number of equal sectors)

[tex]\frac{1}{5}\times\frac{1}{4}=\frac{1}{20}[/tex]          {1 × 1 = 1}    {5×4=20}

Answer:

1 over 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following:

1 spinner and 4 cards

A Spinner which has 5 equal sectors;Color: Green, Blue,Purple,Yellow,Red.

{Arrow point at purple}

Four cards ⇒ which color are Red,Yellow,Blue,Pink

Jane spins the spinner & selects card without looking.

To Find →  Probability spinner stops at purple & select pink card.

Since, purple and pink only has one in each of Spinner/card

Thus,

Spinner (5 equal sectors - 1/5}

Card {4 cards - 1/4}

1/4 × 1/5 = 1/20

Hence, probability spinner stops at purple & select pink card is [A] 1/20
