To find the probability of the spinner stopping on a consonant, we need to add up the frequencies of the consonants (K, N, D) and divide by the total number of outcomes.
Total frequency of consonants = 120 + 105 + 135 = 360
Total number of outcomes = 500
Probability = Total frequency of consonants / Total number of outcomes
Probability = 360 / 500
Probability = 0.72
Therefore, the approximate probability that the spinner will stop on a consonant on the next spin is 0.72.
Correct response: 0.72
