Since the spinner is fair and each section is the same size, the probability of landing on each number is equal, which is 1/4 or 25%.
Therefore, out of the 100 spins, we can expect the spinner to land on the number 2 approximately 25 times (100 x 0.25 = 25).
Elke has a fair spinner with 4 equal-sized sections labeled 1, 2, 3, and 4. Elke plans to spin the spinner 100 times. Predict approximately how many times the spinner will land on 2. Explain your answer.
