ANSWER ASAP CORRECT ANSWER GETS BRAIN THINGY!!!

Given the spinner below, the
probability of landing on an
A is . Predict how many times you would land on an A if you spun the spinner 24 times


A. 8
B. 9
C. 10
D. 12

Answer 1

9 times

Explanation:

Probability for landing on A is 3/8. So, for every 8 times you spin, you predict that you will land on A 3 times (3 times out of 8 spins).

So you either

A.) multiply the probability by the total spins:

(3/8) * (24) = 9 times you land on A

or

B.) divide the 24 spins by 8, to get 3 different repeats of the probability.

So 3 * 3 = 9 times.

Answer 2

B. 9

Explanation:

The probability of landing on A is 3/8. Now, multiply the fraction by the number of times it will be spun.

3/8 × 24 = 9
