Explanation:

(1)

The probability of landing on the color gray ONCE

= 2/7

Since it is spun 35 times, the expected number of times that it lands on a gray will be

(2/7 × 35) = 10 times

(2)

The probability of landing on the color black ONCE

= 1/7

Since it is spun 105 times, the expected number of times that it lands on a black will be

(⅐ × 105) = 15 times

The formula is:

Expected value = (Number of spinning)×(probability of landing on a colour)
