Acertain spinner has equally sized slices. the probability of landing on a red slice is 5/8. what are the odds in favor of landing on a red slice?

  5 : 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The odds in favor are ...

  P(red) : P(not red) = (5/8) : (1 -5/8) = (5/8) : (3/8) = 5 : 3

Comment on the problem statement

"equally sized slices" and "probability of red is 5/8" seem contradictory. Possibly we're missing a description that says there are 8 slices, of which 5 are colored red?

p = 5r - 9
