Question

George has a spinner with three equal sections colored orange, blue, and white. He spins the spinner 100 times. What is the experimental probability of landing on the orange section?

Answer 1

Answer:

1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability calculates the likelihood of an event occurring. The likelihood of the event occurring lies between 0 and 1. It is zero if the event does not occur and 1 if the event occurs.

For example, the probability that it would rain on Friday is between o and 1. If it rains, a value of one is attached to the event. If it doesn't a value of zero is attached to the event.

Experimental probability is based on the result of an experiment that has been carried out multiples times

probability of landing on the orange section = proportion of the orange section / total proportions of all the colours

= 1/3
