Supplemental Problem 1 2 Two-Spinner Sums 1 The Game of Pig 3 2 In some board games, you move your marker a certain number of spaces based on the result of a spinner. Suppose you were playing a game using the two spinners above. The rule is that you spin each spinner and move the same number of spaces as the sum of the two results. 1. Suppose you need a total of at least 5 from the two spinners to reach the winning position on the board. What is your probability of success? 2. Consider the various possible two-spin sums and the probabilities for each. How do these results compare to the results for two-dice sums? What are the similarities and what are the differences?
