Suppose a woman is playing on a television game show in which she spins a large horizontal wheel and drops a sm ball onto the wheel. The wheel contains 47 equally sized sectors, 10 of which are green, 21 of which are red, 9 of which are yellow, and 7 of which are blue. The woman will qualify for the final round of the game if the ball lands in a red or blue sector when the wheel stops What is the probability that she will qualify for the final round of the game?
