Question

A) P (blue)

B) P (green)
C) P (yellow)
D) if you spin the spinner 100 times, how many times would you expect green to be the result ?

Answer 1

To find the expected number of times green will be the result when spinning the spinner 100 times, multiply the probability of getting green on one spin by the number of spins. In this case, the probability of green is 1/3, so you would expect green to be the result approximately 33 times in 100 spins.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the number of times you would expect green to be the result when spinning the spinner 100 times, you need to determine the probability of getting a green result on one spin and then multiply it by the number of spins.

Assuming the probabilities for blue, green, and yellow are equal, we can represent them as follows:

• P(blue) = P(green) = P(yellow) = 1/3

Therefore, the probability of getting a green spin is 1/3. To find the expected number of green results in 100 spins, we can multiply the probability by the number of spins:

Expected number of green results = (1/3) * 100 = 33.33 (rounded to the nearest whole number)

So, you would expect green to be the result approximately 33 times when spinning the spinner 100 times.
