Question

A spinner has 8 equally sized sections labelled as A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H . In 160 spins, how many times can you expect to spin on a consonant?

Answer 1

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

There are 5 consonants (B, C, D, F, G) out of the 8 sections on the spinner.

The probability of spinning on a consonant in one spin is 5/8.

In 160 spins, you can expect to spin on a consonant:

Expected value = probability of spinning on a consonant x total number of spins
Expected value = (5/8) x 160
Expected value = 100

Therefore, in 160 spins, you can expect to spin on a consonant 100 times.
