To find the experimental probability of landing on green, we need to determine the number of times green was landed on out of the total number of spins.
Assuming that green is one of the sections on the spinner, if Bob spun the spinner 150 times, and we want to find the number of times green was landed on, we need to know how many sections are green in the spinner.
If there is only one green section out of the 6 equal sections on the spinner, then the probability of landing on green in one spin is 1/6.
Therefore, the number of times green was landed on out of 150 spins is (1/6) * 150 = 25.
So, the experimental probability of landing on green is 25 out of 150, which simplifies to 25/150 or 1/6.
Therefore, the experimental probability of landing on green is 1/6 or approximately 0.167.
Bob spun a spinner with 6 equal sections 150 times and recorded the results. What is the experimental probability of landing on green?
