Answer:

50 times

Explanation:

Given that:

Number of spins = 400

Sample space = (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8)

Probabililtybof landing on 6 on a single spin :

Probability = required outcome / Total possible outcomes

P(landing on a six) = 1/ 8

Probability of landing on a 6 in 400 spins :

1/8 * 400 = 50 times
