Answer:

The relative frequency of landing on red = 0.68 = 68%

Explanation:

- The spinner has 4 equal sections; blue, green, yellow, and red.

- It is spun 100 times.

- It lands on blue 14 times, green 10 ten times, yellow 8 times, and red 68 times.

The relative frequency of landing on red? Express your answer as a percent.

The relative frequency of landing on any section = (number of times the spinner lands on that section) ÷ (total number of times the spinner is spun)

The relative frequency of landing on red = (68) ÷ (100) = 0.68.

In percentage, 0.68 = 68%

Hope this Helps!!!
