spinner results
color frequency
red 9
blue 18
green 8
yellow 6
purple 7

answer attempt 1 out of 2
%

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate total spins

Add all frequencies: $9 + 18 + 8 + 6 + 7 = 48$

Step2: Find yellow probability ratio

Divide yellow frequency by total spins: $\frac{6}{48}$

Step3: Convert to percentage

Multiply ratio by 100: $\frac{6}{48} \times 100 = 12.5$

Step4: Round to nearest whole number

Round 12.5 to the nearest integer: $13$

Answer:

13%
