Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

Alaina surveyed students on her bus about their homework.

Responses :

Had Homework 8

Did Not Have Homework 4

Total number of students surveyed=12

Alaina used this data to design a spinner with 6 congruent sections that predicts whether a randomly selected student had homework last night.

Number of sections in spinner= half of the students surveyed

So, there will be half the number of each responses in the spinner i.e.

Had Homework 4

Did Not Have Homework 2

So, number of sections of Alaina’s spinner which represent students who did not have homework is:

2
