You spin the spinner and flip a coin. Find the probability of the compound event.

The probability of spinning a prime number and not flipping heads is...

3/10 or 0.3

Step-by-step explanation:

The numbers in the spinners are given to be:

{1,2,3,4,5}

Total number of outcomes are: 5

On spinning the spinner, the outcomes which are prime are:

{2,3,5}

Hence, the probability that a prime number is obtained is:

3/5

Also, the probability that a head is not obtained i.e. a tail is obtained is:

1/2

Hence, the compound probability of spinning a prime number and not flipping head is:

3/10 or 0.3
