Final answer:

The probability of a dart landing on a green area on a randomly painted circle is 3/14.


Explanation:

The probability that a dart will land on a green area:

Given one-seventh of the circle is red, half is blue, and the rest is green, we can calculate the probability of landing on green.

Since green covers the remaining portion after red and blue, the probability is 1 - (1/7 + 1/2) = 3/14.
