Question

A spinner with sections labeled 1 to 6 was spun 50 times. The result was recorded after each spin. The table shows the results.

Frequency
Number on Section
1 10
2 7
3 9
4 11
5 5
6 8
Based on the information in the table, what is the experimental probability that the next time the spinner is spun it will land on 2 or 3?
A. 30%
B. 38%
C. 20%
D. 45%

Answer 1

The experimental probability of landing on 2 or 3 is 32%.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the experimental probability of landing on 2 or 3, we need to calculate the total number of spins that resulted in 2 or 3, and divide it by the total number of spins. According to the table, the number of spins that resulted in 2 or 3 is 7 + 9 = 16. The total number of spins is 50. Therefore, the experimental probability is 16/50 = 0.32, or 32%.
