The spinner shown has 7 congruent sections.%0D%0A%0D%0A%0D%0A%0D%0AThe spinner is spun 182 times. What is a reasonable prediction for the number of times the spinner will NOT land on a number that is a multiple of 3?
Since there are 7 congruent sections on the spinner, and 2 out of the 7 numbers are multiples of 3 (3 and 6), we can predict that the spinner will land on a multiple of 3 approximately 2/7 of the time.
Therefore, the spinner will NOT land on a multiple of 3 approximately 5/7 of the time.
To calculate the predicted number of times the spinner will NOT land on a multiple of 3 out of 182 spins, we can use the formula:
Predicted number of spins NOT on a multiple of 3 = (5/7) * 182 = 130
Therefore, a reasonable prediction would be that the spinner will NOT land on a number that is a multiple of 3 about 130 times out of 182 spins.
