A spinner has 8 equally sized sections labeled as A,B,C,D,EF,G,H IN 160 spins how many time can you expect to spin on aconconant?

1 answer

There are 5 consonants out of 8 sections. The probability of landing on a consonant in one spin is therefore 5/8.

Expected number of spins on a consonant = (probability of landing on a consonant) x (total number of spins)

Expected number of spins on a consonant = (5/8) x 160

Expected number of spins on a consonant = 100

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