Q. If you spin the spinner 11 times, what is the best prediction possible for the number of times it will land on pink or blue?_____ times
Calculate Probability: Step 1: Determine the probability of the spinner landing on pink or blue.Assuming the spinner has equal sections and there are 4 possible outcomes (red, green, pink, blue), the probability of landing on pink or blue is the sum of the probabilities of landing on each.Calculation: P(pink or blue)=P(pink)+P(blue)=41+41=21.
Calculate Expected Number: Step 2: Calculate the expected number of times the spinner will land on pink or blue in 11 spins.Using the probability from Step 1, multiply by the number of spins.Calculation: Expected number = P(pink or blue)×Number of spins=21×11=5.5.
