Question

To play the game you spin a spinner like the one shown you win if the arrow lands in one of the areas marked Win Lee played this game many times and recorded her results she won 11 times and lost 57 times use lee date to explain how to find the experimental probability of winning this game and to complete the explanation

Answer 1

She played the game 11+57 = 68 times. She won 11 times. So the experimental probability of Lee winning is 11/68 = 0.1618 = 16.18%.

Explanation:

To find the experimental probability of an outcome we divide:

The number of trials in which the desired outcome happened by the total number of trials.

In this question:

Experimental probability of winning this game.

She played the game 11+57 = 68 times. She won 11 times. So the experimental probability of Lee winning is 11/68 = 0.1618 = 16.18%.
