Q. If you spin the spinner 10 times, what is the best prediction possible for the number of times it will land on pink?_____ times
Determine sections on spinner: Step 1: Determine the total number of sections on the spinner and the number of sections that are pink. Assume the spinner has 8 sections, with 3 sections being pink.
Calculate probability of pink: Step 2: Calculate the probability of the spinner landing on pink. Probability P = Number of pink sections / Total number of sections = 83.
Predict spins landing on pink: Step 3: Predict the number of times the spinner will land on pink after 10 spins. Expected number =Probability of pink×Number of spins=83×10=3.75. Since we can't have a fraction of a spin, we round to 4.
