A spinner has eight equal sections numbered from 1–8. Predict how many times the pointer will land on a multiple of 3 in 300 spins.

Respuesta :

600 times the pointer will land on a multiple of 3 in 300 spins.

Step-by-step explanation:

A spinner has eight equal sections numbered from 1 to 8.

  • The possible outcomes for each spin is {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8}.
  • The possibility to get a multiple of 3 is {3,6}.

Therefore, the number of getting multiple of 3 is 2.

To find how many times the pointer will land on multiple of 3 in 300 spins:

⇒ No.of multiples of 3 in each spin × 300

⇒ 2 × 300

⇒ 600 times.

∴ You can predict that the pointer will land 600 times on a multiple of 3.
