A spinner is divided into five colored sections that are not of equal size: red, blue, green, yellow, and purple. The spinner is spun several times, and the results are recorded below:
Spinner Results
Color Frequency
Red 16
Blue 18
Green 9
Yellow 3
Purple 19
Based on these results, express the probability that the next spin will land on green as a fraction in simplest form.
The total number of spins recorded is 16 + 18 + 9 + 3 + 19 = 65.
The probability of landing on green is given by the frequency of green spins divided by the total number of spins:
P(green) = 9/65
Therefore, the probability that the next spin will land on green as a fraction in simplest form is 9/65.
