Question
Find the probability of the pointer stopping on D.
Solution
The pointer can stop at one of the following regions:
A, A, B, C, D
Out of these 5 cases, it is possible only in 1 case that the pointer will stop at region D.
Therefore, the probability that the pointer will stop at Region D
= `("Favourable outcomes")/("Total number of outcomes")`
= `1/5`
