  • The spinner above is spun 60 times. The results are given in the table below. What is the theoretical probability of spinning an even number? What is the experimental probability of spinning an even number? Compare to theoretical.
    Theoretical = 1/2 or 50%, Exp= 33/60=11/20 or 55%, more than expected
  • A bag contains 4 cherry, 8 orange, 6 strawberry and 10 lemon gummy bears. A gummy bear is chosen at random, eaten, then another is chosen. Find the probability of selecting a lemon, eating it, then selecting a cherry.
