Question

A spinner has three sections. The table shows the results of spinning the arrow on the spinner 80 times. What is the experimental probability of the arrow stopping over Section 3? Section 1: 18 Section 2: 30 Section 3 :32

Answer 1

the answer is 32/80 because the arrow stopped on section three 32 times out of the 80 spins

Answer 2

Answer:
`(2)/(5)`

Explanation:

From the given table, The number of times arrow stops over Section 3 = 32

The total number of times spinner spins = 80

Now, the experimental probability of the arrow stopping over Section 3 is given by :-

`P(S-3)=(32)/(80)\\\\\Rightarrow P(S-3)=(2)/(5)`

Hence, the experimental probability of the arrow stopping over Section 3 is
`(2)/(5)`
