GCSE Maths Practice: theoretical-vs-experimental-probability

Question 8 of 10

Compute experimental probability for a spinner.

‹ ›

\( \begin{array}{l}\text{A spinner has 5 equal sections: red, blue, green, yellow, purple.} \\ \text{It lands on yellow 10 times in 50 spins. What is the experimental probability?}\end{array} \)

Choose one option:

\( \frac{10}{50} \) \( \frac{1}{5} \) \( \frac{3}{10} \)

Divide observed yellow outcomes by total spins.

Experimental probability = yellow outcomes ÷ total spins.
