Respuesta :

The fly that lands on the circular target is more likely to land on a yellow region. 

This is because the yellow area of the circular target has an area slightly larger than 12. Compare this to the yellow are of the rectangular target, who, assuming the height is 1 cm, has an area of 4 cm.
