A spinner is divided into 5 equal sections, labeled 1 through 5. What is the theoretical probability of spinning a 3 on the spinner?
A) 1/5
B) 1/4
C) 1/3
D) 1/2
Correct Answer: A) 1/5
Explanation: Since there are 5 equal sections on the spinner and only 1 of them is labeled as 3, the theoretical probability of spinning a 3 is 1 out of 5, or 1/5.
