The spinner at the right is spun 12 times. It lands on blue 1 time. What is the experimental probability of the spinner landing on blue?
The experimental probability is the ratio of the number of times an event occurs to the total number of trials. In this case, the spinner was spun 12 times and landed on blue once.
Experimental probability of landing on blue = Number of times it landed on blue / Total number of spins
Experimental probability of landing on blue = 1/12
Experimental probability of landing on blue = 0.083 or 8.3% (rounded to one decimal place)
Therefore, the experimental probability of the spinner landing on blue is approximately 0.083 or 8.3%.
