[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

To find the number of times you can expect the spinner to land on a consonant in 160 spins, first identify the consonants in the spinner: B, C, D, F, G, and H. There are 6 consonants out of the 8 sections on the spinner.

To calculate the expected number of times the spinner will land on a consonant, multiply the total number of spins by the probability of landing on a consonant in each spin.

Probability of landing on a consonant = 6/8 = 3/4

Expected number of times landing on a consonant = 160 spins * (3/4) = 120

Therefore, you can expect the spinner to land on a consonant 120 times in 160 spins.
