To find the probability that a randomly selected point within a circle falls into a red shaded area, you would typically use the formula:

Probability (P) = Area of the red shaded region / Area of the entire circle

However, since you did not provide specific details or measurements for the red shaded area or the circle, I cannot calculate an exact decimal value for you.

If the red shaded area is a certain part of the circle (for example, if the circle is divided into 4 equal parts and 1 part is shaded red), then the probability would be the ratio of the red part to the whole (1/4 in this example). To get that probability as a decimal rounded to the nearest tenth, you divide 1 by 4, which equals 0.25, and since it is already at the nearest tenth, the answer would be 0.3 after rounding.

Please provide the areas or another way to quantify the size of the red shaded area and the entire circle for a more precise calculation.
