Q. You spin the spinner once. 3,4,5,6,7,8 What is P(odd or prime)? Write your answer as a percentage.
Identify numbers on spinner: Identify the total numbers on the spinner and the numbers that are odd or prime.Total numbers = 345678Odd numbers = (345678+1)/2=172839Prime numbers = (Using approximation formula for primes less than n, π(n)≈n/log(n))Prime numbers ≈345678/log(345678)≈24512
Calculate odd and prime numbers: Calculate the union of odd and prime numbers.Since all prime numbers except 2 are odd, the union is just the odd numbers plus 2 if it's not included.Union of odd and prime = 172839 (since 2 is even and not included in odd count)
