Find the probability that Tommy, Michelle and Allison get the color red if they take turns in spinning the 4 colors spinner.

=> there are 4 colors in 1 spinner

=> there are 3 people playing it.

Thus the probability that they can get the same color is 1:4

since in a spinner, there is only 1 red color of course and each one of them can have a probability to get the red color. Each one of them also can have the probability to get other colors though.
