Question

Ziggy throws darts at a board split into 4 sections and records which section they hit.



Based on Ziggy's data, what is the probability that a dart he throws will land in section 1 or 2?

Express your answer as a percentage rounded to the nearest tenth of a percent.

Worked Solution

Number of throws = 45 + 22 + 13 + 9
= 89

\therefore Probability (1 or 2) = (45+22)89\dfrac{(45 + 22)}{89}
= 6789\dfrac{67}{89}
= 0.7528 …
= 75.3% (nearest tenth)

Question

Jarrod throws darts at a board split into 4 sections and records which section they hit.



Based on Jarrod's data, what is the probability that a dart he throws will land in section 2 or 4?

Express your answer as a percentage rounded to the nearest tenth of a percent.

Worked Solution

Number of throws = 45 + 22 + 13 + 9
= 89

\therefore Probability (2 or 4) = (22+9)89\dfrac{(22 + 9)}{89}
= 3189\dfrac{31}{89}
= 0.3483...
= 34.8% (nearest tenth)
