Question

You spin a spinner 48 times. Out of the 48 trials, the pointer lands 6 times on section two. What is the experimental probability of the pointer landing on section two?

1/3
1/27
1/8
1/7

Answer 1

1/8

Explanation:

Answer 2

The experimental probability would be equal to the number of times the event happened over the number of times it was attempted. In this case, the experiment was tried 48 times, and only 6 times did it land on 2. The experimental probability is 6/48, which simplified to 1/8.
