A spinner is divided into five colored sections that are not of equal size: red, blue, green, yellow, and purple. The arrow on the spinner is spun several times.

Spinner Results
Color Number of Times
red 13
blue 10
green 15
yellow 8
purple 6

The arrow on the spinner will be spun one more time. Based on these results, what is the probability that the arrow will NOT land on the red section?

The total number of spins recorded is 52 (13 + 10 + 15 + 8 + 6).

The probability of the arrow landing on the red section is 13/52.

Therefore, the probability of the arrow NOT landing on the red section is 1 - 13/52 = 39/52, or approximately 0.75.
