The spinner below shows 5 equally sized slices. Tammy spun the dial 25 times and got the following results. Fill in the table below. Round your answers to the nearest thousandths.

a) 4/25, or 0.16, or 16%

b) 1/5, or 0.2, or 20%

c) The first option - the theoretical and experimental values should become closer the more trials that are performed.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) 4 of Tammy's 25 spins landed on black, so the experimental probability is 4/25, or 0.16, or 16%.

b) The spinner is split into 5 equal sections. Assuming it is fair, the chance of landing in any given section for a single spin is 1/5, or 0.2, or 20%.

c) The theoretical and experimental values should get closers the more trials you do.

For example, consider 1 coin flip vs 100. The theoretical probability of landing on a given side of a coin is 1/2, or 0.5, or 50%. With a single flip, your experimental probability will either be 0% or 100%, both off of the theoretical probability by 50%. After 100 flips however, the experimental and theoretical probabilities will be much closer to each other.
