Outcomes K I N D

Frequency 120 140 105 135
A spinner is divided into 4 sections labeled as K,  I, N, D. Xavier reproduced the wheel and uses a computer to simulate the outcomes of 500 spins. What is the approximate probability that the spinner will stop on a consonant on the next spin?

To find the probability of the spinner landing on a consonant, we need to add the frequencies of K, N, and D together.

So, the total frequency of landing on a consonant = Frequency of K + Frequency of N + Frequency of D
= 120 + 105 + 135
= 360

The total frequency of all outcomes is 500 spins.

Therefore, the approximate probability of landing on a consonant on the next spin is
= frequency of consonant outcomes / total frequency
= 360/500
= 0.72

Therefore, the answer is 0.72.
