Number of Spins 19 57


Based on the data, which of the following best describes the experimental probability of the arrow landing on a black or white section of the spinner?
The spinner is 3 times more likely to land on white.
The spinner is 3 times more likely to land on black.
The information cannot be concluded from the data.
The spinner is equally likely to land on black or white.

Answer 1

Answer:

The spinner is 3 times more likely to land on white.

Step-by-step explanation:

P( black) = black/ total = 19/76 = .25

P( white) = white/ total = 57/76 = .75

3 out of every 4 spins is white

1 out of every 4 spins is black

3/1 white/black

3 times more likely to get white
