Answer: 0.76

Explanation:

Given : Number of sections ( yellow, brown, red and orange) = 4

The spinner is spun 50 times and lands on brown 12 times, then the number of times spinner does not land on brown = 50-12=38

Then, the experimental probability that the spinner does not land on brown :_


\frac{\text{Spinner does not land on brown}}{\text{Total spins}}\\\\=(38)/(50)=0.76

Hence, the experimental probability that the spinner does not land on brown = 0.76
