A spinner has 8 congruent sides, 1,9,5,3,2,16,11, and 8 if it spun 120 times what it's a reasonable prediction for the number of times it will land on an even number?

There are 3 even numbers out of A total of 8 numbers.

Each spin would have a 3/8 chance of landing in an even number.

Multiply the chance of landing on even by number of spins:

120 x 3/8 = 360/8 = 45

The answer would be 45 times.
