Kate spins this spinner once.

Which list represents the sample space of this event?

{blue, green, orange, red, yellow}

{blue, green, orange, red, yellow, yellow, yellow}

{blue, green, orange, red, yellow, yellow, yellow, yellow}

{blue, green, red, yellow, yellow, yellow}

The sample space of an event is the set of all possible outcomes of the event.

The spinner has 7 equal sections, so the list will have 7 elements.

Each section is labeled with a color. There is one blue, one green, one orange, one red, and three yellow sections.

This list represents the sample space.

{blue, green, orange, red, yellow, yellow, yellow}
