The experimental probability of landing on white can be found by dividing the frequency of white by the total number of spins:
Experimental probability of landing on white = Frequency of white / Total spins
Experimental probability of landing on white = 45 / 150
Experimental probability of landing on white = 0.3
To express this as a percentage, we need to multiply by 100:
0.3 * 100 = 30%
Therefore, the experimental probability of landing on white is 30%.
Use the table to answer the question.
Colors Where the Spinner Stopped Frequency
blue 20
red 15
green 45
yellow 10
black 15
white 45
Total 150
A color wheel with six equal sections, blue, red, green, yellow, black, and white, was spun 150 times. The results are summarized in the table.
