Same here i got 1/125 :/
for getting a number in one spin is 1/5 therefore for three spin it would be 1/5 x 1/5 x 1/5= 1/125
Allah ke bandon:

Let's say the number coming three times in a row is x

x can be 1 .Probability = 1/125
x can be 3. Probability = 1/125
x can be 5. Probability = 1/125
x can be 7. Probability = 1/125
x can be 9. Probability = 1/125

Add mamu jee nahin karen gey :p

oh correct answer , but please explain the logic of adding awl these probability !!!

STILL CONFUSED :confused:

probability for any number in one spin = 1/5
probability for that number in 3 spins = 1/5 x 1/5 x 1/5 = 1/125
Now, since there are 5 numbers it can be 1 OR 3 OR 5 OR 6 OR 7
In cases of "OR" we add the possibilities, therefore = 1/125 x 5 = 1/25 :D

okay guys m hell tensed about one thing
i have a broken left arm, loci ka question agaya tou maiin kia karungi? + if my overall prep is gud, aur loci aur transformations b chor dun, what grade can i get?
:confused:

1- It depends whether it comes or not, 2- even if it does and let's suppose you're gonna lose approx. 15 marks (god forbid), it would be 165/180, unless you make other mistakes. Still an A*.
3- If you make other mistakes too, like of about 10 marks (5 marks in p1, 5 in p2) and loci of 5 marks came in p1, while transformation of 10 in p2, so it's gonna be 70/80 in p1, and 85/100 in p2.

There's a 50-50 weighting of both papers, so in p1 70/80 * 50 = 43.75, and in p2, 85/100 * 50 = 42.5
43.75 +42.5 =86.25% which means an A.

But let's hope loci and transformation don't come. ;)

Look i think when you know the ratio of the other 2 triangles ie. 16/25 the remaining area should be 9 to make it 25 (16 +9 = 25).
Note that there are 3 triangles that contribute to this area, so divide by 3. The answer you will get already refers to area, so don't square it, and divide this by 25 (the total area of the figure). 3/25
