IMAGINE a circle split into 6 even equal parts. The numbers on these circles are: 1,2,3,4,5 and 6. This circle has an arrow attached to the middle.
In the above circle, a person spins the arrow. the fraction a/b is formed; where a is the # of the sector where the arrow stops after the first spin. b is the # of the sector where the arrow stops after the second spin. On every spin, each of the sectors has an equal probability on which the arrow stops. What is the probability that the fraction a/b is greater than 1?
