A spinner has 8 equally sized sections labeled as A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H. In 160 spins, how many times can you expect to spin and land on a consonant?(
In the spinner, the consonants are B, C, D, F, G, and H, which totals to 6 out of the 8 sections.
To find the expected number of spins landing on a consonant, we can take the probability of landing on a consonant and multiply it by the total number of spins:
Probability of spinning a consonant = 6/8 = 3/4
Expected number of spins landing on a consonant = (3/4) * 160 = 120
Therefore, in 160 spins, you can expect to land on a consonant approximately 120 times.
