- Roulette American roulette is a game in which a wheel turns on a spindle and is divided into 38 pockets. Thirty-six of the pockets are numbered 1-36, of which half are red and half are black. Two of the pockets are green and are numbered 0 and 00 (see figure). The dealer spins the wheel and a small ball in opposite directions. As the ball slows to a stop, it has an equal probability of landing in any of the numbered pockets. (a) Find the probability of landing in the number 00 pocket. (b) Find the probability of landing in a red pocket. (c) Find the probability of landing in a green pocket or a black pocket. (d) Find the probability of landing in the number 14 pocket on two consecutive spins.
