Tracy works at a sporting goods store that sells 18 snowboard models and 6 skateboard models. She just got a call from her supplier that one of the models has been discontinued.

The probability that the discontinued model is a snowboard is.

If you use a spinner divided into four equal sections with two sections for snowboards and two for skateboards to simulate this situation, the probability of a snowboard being the discontinued model is.

This result means that the simulation is for the situation.

To determine the probability that snowboard is the discontinued model, let us use the formula,

P = number of favorable outcome / number of total outcome

Since there will be a spinner divided into four. Two each for snowboard and skateboard. There will be two favorable outcomes for the snowboard to be predicted as the discontinued model.

Therefore,

P = 2/4

The probability of the snowboard to be discontinued is 2/4 or 50%
