First, we need to find the total frequency of consonants, which are K, N, and D.
Total frequency of consonants: 120 + 105 + 135 = 360
Now, we can find the probability of landing on a consonant by dividing the total frequency of consonants by the total number of outcomes:
Probability of landing on a consonant = 360/500 = 0.72
Therefore, the approximate probability that the spinner will stop on a consonant on the next spin is 0.72.
Answer: B. 0.72
Use the table to answer the question.
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?
A. 0.28
B. 0.72
C. 0.24
D. 0.45
