Answer 1

The experimental probability of spinning purple can be calculated by dividing the number of purple jelly beans by the total number of jelly beans.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the experimental probability of spinning purple, we need to determine the number of purple jelly beans in the jar and divide it by the total number of jelly beans in the jar.

In this case, the table states that there are 28 purple jelly beans out of a total of 150 jelly beans in the jar.

So, the experimental probability of spinning purple can be calculated as:

P(Purple) = Number of purple jelly beans / Total number of jelly beans = 28 / 150 = 0.1867 (rounded to four decimal places)
