possible outcomes
1a
1b
2a
2b
3a
3b

there are a total of 2 number one's
so there is a possibility of 2/6 chance to get the number 1

There are 3 a's in the set of data so there is a 3/6 chance to get an a
But we should exclude 1a because it is already counted in the first set when we counted the total number of 1's so there is a 2/6 chance of getting an A

add
2/6+2/6=4/6
There is a 4/6 or 2/3 chance of getting either an a or an 1

Answer:

a. 1a 1b 2a 2b 3a 3b b. 5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

b. to get 5/6 you first have to find the outcomes for spinning a one, which is 2 outcomes, 1a, and 1b, and for a 1a, 2a, 3a

mix up the outcomes and you get 5 with the sample space of 6

5//6 hope this helps
