Answer:

2/5

Explanation:

Probability determines how likely an event would occur. Probability of an event occurring usually lies between 0 and 1

There are three types of probability

  1. Theoretical Probability
  2. Experimental Probability
  3. Axiomatic Probability

the probability it lands right side up = number of times it landed right side up / total number of times the airplane was thrown

12/30

To express in simpler form, divide both numerator and denominator by 6

2/5
