The probability of spinning a red first and a blue second is [tex]\frac{1}{16}[/tex]
'Probability is defined as the possibility of an event to happen is equal to the ratio of the number of outcomes and the total number of outcomes.'
According to the given problem,
Probability of getting a red when spinning stops = [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]
Probability of getting a blue when spinning stops = [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]
Probability of spinning a red first AND a blue second = [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] × [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{1}{16}[/tex]
Hence, we can conclude, the theoretical probability of spinning a red first and a blue second is [tex]\frac{1}{16}[/tex]
