Q. If you spin the spinner 1010 times, what is the best prediction possible for the number of times it will land on pink?\newline\newline_____\_\_\_\_\_ times
  1. Determine sections on spinner: Step 11: Determine the total number of sections on the spinner and the number of sections that are pink. Assume the spinner has 88 sections, with 33 sections being pink.
  2. Calculate probability of pink: Step 22: Calculate the probability of the spinner landing on pink. Probability PP = Number of pink sections / Total number of sections = 38\frac{3}{8}.
  3. Predict spins landing on pink: Step 33: Predict the number of times the spinner will land on pink after 1010 spins. Expected number =Probability of pink×Number of spins=38×10=3.75= \text{Probability of pink} \times \text{Number of spins} = \frac{3}{8} \times 10 = 3.75. Since we can't have a fraction of a spin, we round to 44.
