Use the spinner to find the probability and odds in favor of landing on a number greater than 9, or P(>9). Choose the correct simplified solutions.

P(>9) = 1/4 and the odds = 1:3

P(>9) = 1/3 and the odds = 1:4

P(>9) = 1/3 and the odds = 3:1

P(>9) = 1/4 and the odds = 4:1

Using the outcomes for the roll of two dice, find the probability of getting a sum of 4 or P(sum of 4). Choose the correct simplified solution.

P(sum of 4) = 1/11

P(sum of 4) = 3/33

P(sum of 4) = 11/36

P(sum of 4) = 1/12
