The experimental probability of landing on green can be calculated by dividing the number of times green was landed on by the total number of spins. In this case, green was landed on 6 times out of 30 spins.
Experimental probability of landing on green = Number of times green was landed on / Total number of spins
Experimental probability of landing on green = 6 / 30
Experimental probability of landing on green = 1 / 5
Experimental probability of landing on green = 0.2
Therefore, the experimental probability of landing on green is 0.2 or 20%.
