A spinner has five sections, labeled A, B, C, D, and E. The spinner is spun 45 times, and the results are recorded in the table.
What is the experimental probability of the spinner’s landing on C? Round to the nearest percent, if necessary.

Outcome A B C D E
Number of trials 6 10 8 12 9

A.8%
B.18%
C.20%
D. 24%



Answer :

Pause
B. because it is spun 45 times. 45 + 45 = 90.

20 goes into ninety 4 1/2 times. it would probably be 18%


(Just an estimate)

The experimental probability of the spinner’s landing on C is 18%

The total number of spins is:

n = 45

From the table, the outcome of C is:

C = 8

So, the experimental probability of C is:

P(C) = n(C)/n

This gives

P(C) = 8/45

Divide

P(C) = 0.1777

Express as percentage

P(C) = 17.77%

Approximate

P(C) = 18%

Hence, the experimental probability of the spinner’s landing on C is 18%
