Victoria spins a spinner with six equal sections 60 times her results are blue 14 green 12 orange 6 purple 10 red 10 yellow 8 what is the experimental probability of landing on green
To find the experimental probability of landing on green, we first calculate the total number of times Victoria landed on the spinner, which is the sum of all the results:
Total spins = 14 (blue) + 12 (green) + 6 (orange) + 10 (purple) + 10 (red) + 8 (yellow)
Total spins = 60
Next, we calculate the number of times Victoria landed on green:
Number of green spins = 12
Finally, we calculate the experimental probability of landing on green by dividing the number of green spins by the total number of spins and multiplying by 100 to get a percentage:
Experimental probability of green = (Number of green spins / Total spins) * 100
Experimental probability of green = (12 / 60) * 100
Experimental probability of green = 0.2 * 100
Experimental probability of green = 20%
Therefore, the experimental probability of landing on green is 20%.
Please give your answer in fraction form
The experimental probability of landing on green, in fraction form, is:
Number of green spins = 12
Total spins = 60
Experimental probability of landing on green = 12/60
Experimental probability of landing on green = 1/5
So, the experimental probability of landing on green in fraction form is 1/5.
