Answer:

1/10 or 0.10 or 10%

Explanation:

Based on the data given, the spinner landed on yellow 2 times out of the 20 times it was spun. Therefore, the experimental probability of landing on yellow, based on the data, is 2/20. If you simplify this, it is 1/10, which is 0.10 as a decimal and 10% as a percent.

Hope this helps! :)
