We want to find the number of possible spinning the spinner and randomly choosing a number from 1 to 5. There are 4 faces that the pointer can land on when we spin the spinner.
Faces of the Spinner: blue, green, yellow, red
Additionally, there are 5 different digits than we can draw.
Digits: 1,2,3,4,5
To find the total number outcomes, we can use the Fundamental Counting Principle.
ccc
Number of & & Number of
Faces & & Digits
4 & * & 5
This means that the number of possible combinations is a product of these values.
4 * 5 =20
