John has a spinner with eight equal sectors with labels from 1 to 8. He spins the spinner once.
What is the probability that he gets a number less than 4 or a multiple of 4?
Answer choices:
P ( <4 or multiple of 4 ) =
P( < 4) + P (multiple of 4 ) - P(<4 and multiple of 4) =
(3/8) + ( 2/8) - 0 =
5 / 8
Note that P( < 4 and multiple of 4) = 0 because there are no multiples of 4 that are < 4
