Let’s solve each question one by one.
---
Question 1: What is the probability of choosing the letter “i” from the word *probability*?
Step 1: Write out the word:
p-r-o-b-a-b-i-l-i-t-y
Step 2: Count total letters → There are 11 letters.
Step 3: Count how many times the letter “i” appears → It appears
twice (positions 7 and 9).
Step 4: Probability = favorable outcomes / total outcomes = 2/11
✔ So, correct answer is
A: 2/11

Question 2: Is the spinner more likely or less likely to land on green than yellow?
Look at the spinner:
- Green sections: Let’s count — there are
3 green slices.
- Yellow sections: Only
1 yellow slice.
Since 3 > 1, it’s
more likely to land on green.
✔ Correct answer is
B: more likely

Question 3: Is it certain or impossible for the spinner to land on orange?
Look at the spinner colors: Blue, Red, Green, Yellow —
no orange.
If a color isn’t on the spinner, you can never land on it.
That means it’s
impossible.
✔ Correct answer is
A: impossible
---
Question 4: What is the probability of the spinner landing on an odd number?
Spinner has numbers: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 → Total = 8 sections.
Odd numbers: 1, 3, 5, 7 → That’s
4 odd numbers.
Probability = 4/8
We can simplify that to 1/2, but since 4/8 is an option, we pick that.
✔ Correct answer is
D: 4/8

Final Answer:
1. A
2. B
3. A
4. D
