    A spinner has 6 equal sections, of which 2 are green. If you spin the spinner once, what is the probability that it will land on a green section? Write your answer as a fraction or whole number.

    P(green) = Total Green / Total spaces
    P(green) = 2/6

    We can simplify this fraction. So we type 2/6 into our search engine, choose Simplify, and we get:
    P(green) = 1/3
