The probability Amelie spins either an odd number or a red number is:

P = 4/5

How to find the probability?

We want to find the probability of spinning a red or odd number, this is equal to the quotient between the number of odd numbers + the number of red numbers and the total number of numbers in the spinner.

  • We know that there are 10 numbers in the spinner.
  • 2, 4, and 6 are red, so we have 3 red numbers.
  • 1, 3, 5, 7, and 9, are odd, so we have 5 odd numbers.

Then there are 5 + 3 = 8 numbers that are either red or odd, and a total of 10 numbers, this means that the probability of spinning an odd number or a red number is:

P = 8/10 = 4/5
