Best answer

Total numbers of green sectors = 3 

Total numbers of blue sector = 1 

Total numbers of red sector = 1 

Total number of sectors = 3 + 1 + 1 = 5

Probability of getting a green sector is = \(\frac{Total\,number\,of\,green\,sectors}{Total\,number\,of\,shocks}\) = \(\frac{3}{5}\)

Probability of getting a blue sector is = \(\frac{Total\,number\,of\,blue\,sectors}{Total\,number\,of\,shocks}\) = \(\frac{1}{5}\)

Probability of getting a red sector is = \(\frac{Total\,number\,of\,red\,sectors}{Total\,number\,of\,shocks}\) = \(\frac{1}{5}\)

Yes, probability of getting a green sector is maximum.
