Q. If you spin the spinner 1111 times, what is the best prediction possible for the number of times it will land on pink or blue?\newline\newline_____ times
  1. Calculate Probability: Step 11: Determine the probability of the spinner landing on pink or blue.\newlineAssuming the spinner has equal sections and there are 44 possible outcomes (red, green, pink, blue), the probability of landing on pink or blue is the sum of the probabilities of landing on each.\newlineCalculation: P(pink or blue)=P(pink)+P(blue)=14+14=12.P(\text{pink or blue}) = P(\text{pink}) + P(\text{blue}) = \frac{1}{4} + \frac{1}{4} = \frac{1}{2}.
  2. Calculate Expected Number: Step 22: Calculate the expected number of times the spinner will land on pink or blue in 1111 spins.\newlineUsing the probability from Step 11, multiply by the number of spins.\newlineCalculation: Expected number = P(pink or blue)×Number of spins=12×11=5.5P(\text{pink or blue}) \times \text{Number of spins} = \frac{1}{2} \times 11 = 5.5.
