P(2<n<7)=(7-2-1)/(8-1+1)

P(2<n<7)=4/8

P(2<n<7)=1/2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a spinner is circular in shape with numbers 1 to 8 marked in equal sectors.

Hence probability of getting any number 1 to 8 is equally likely=1/8

Required probability is probability that the number is between 2 and 7

Numbers between 2 and 7 are 3,4,5,and 6

Hence favourable events = 4

Total events =8

P(a number between 2 and 7)=4/8 =0.50

Hence answer is 0.50

the theoretical probability of the given event with one spin (i.e. number lands in a number between 2 and 7) is 0.50
