The correct response is: 3 tenths
Since there are a total of 5 letters on the spinner, the probability of landing on the letter L is 1 out of 5. Therefore, the theoretical probability of landing on the letter L is 1 fifth or 3 tenths when spinning the spinner 10 times.
Bronwyn used the spinner pictured below and recorded his results. He spun it 10 times and tallied up how many times he landed on each letter.
C - 2 times
L - 3 times
E - 1 time
A - 2 times
N - 2 times
His experimental probability of landing on the letter L is 310
.
