Question

Iliana performed an experiment by spinning a spinner a set number of times and noting the color on which the spinner landed. The table below shows the results. Result Frequency Blue 7 Red 9 Green 6 Yellow 8 What is the experimental probability for the highest frequency?

A. 4/30
B. 9/30
C. 30/9
D. 30/4

PLEASE HELP ME pLEASE :(

Answer 1

well if you add 7+9+6+8=30 and the highest number was 9 so prob. is that you would spin 9 reds of out 30 spins so your answer would be  B. 9/30

Answer 2

Answer: B. 9/30

Explanation:

Given table :

Result Frequency

Blue 7

Red 9

Green 6

Yellow 8

Total frequency :
`7+6+8+9=30`

Highest frequency among all = 9

Now, the experimental probability for the highest frequency is given by :-

`P(H)=\frac{\text{Highest frequnecy}}{\text{Total frequency}}\\\\\Rightarrow\ P(H)=(9)/(30)`

Hence, the experimental probability for the highest frequency =9/30
