Answer:

126

Explanation:

Given that all of the spaces are equally sized, each space has an equal chance of being landed on by the spinner. As there are 5 spaces, the probability of landing on any one space is 1/5. This means that one fifth of the number of spins are expected to land on 3.

630 × 1/5 = 126

Answer:

Gerald should expect the spinner to land on 3, 126 times.

Explanation:

Because we don't know what's actually going to happen, we can determine the theoretical probability by multiplying 1/5 by 630 to get 126.
