Final answer:

The theoretical probability of the arrow landing on green on the fifth spin is 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

Theoretical probability is calculated by dividing the number of favorable outcomes by the total number of possible outcomes. In this case, Jared flicked the arrow on the spinner four times and it landed on green each time. Therefore, the number of favorable outcomes is 4 and the total number of possible outcomes is 4 as well, since there are only four colors on the spinner. So, the theoretical probability of landing on green on the fifth spin is 4/4, which simplifies to 1.
