Out of the 8 sections, 5 are consonants (B, C, D, F, G).
Therefore, the probability of spinning on a consonant in one spin is 5/8.
Expected number of spins on a consonant = Probability of spinning on a consonant x Total number of spins
Expected number of spins on a consonant = (5/8) x 160 = 100
Therefore, in 160 spins, you can expect to spin on a consonant 100 times.
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?
