Question

spinner results
color frequency
red 11
blue 8
green 3
yellow 14
purple 15
based on these results, express the probability that the next spin will land on red or green or yellow as a percent to the nearest whole number.
answer attempt 1 out of 2

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate total frequency

$11 + 8+3 + 14+15=51$

Step2: Calculate frequency of red, green and yellow

$11 + 3+14 = 28$

Step3: Calculate probability as a fraction

The probability $P=\frac{28}{51}$

Step4: Convert fraction to percentage

$P=\frac{28}{51}\times100\%\approx 55\%$

Answer:

$55\%$
