Kelly spun a spinner, which is pictured below, 
times. The spinner had six equally-sized sections, each of a different color, and she recorded her results in the table provided. What is the theoretical probability of the spinner landing on the pink section?
Kelly spun a spinner, which is pictured below,
The theoretical probability is what should happen. In this case, we have 
spaces and 
of those spaces is pink; thus, the theoretical probability of the spinner landing on pink should always be

Compare your answer with the correct one above
Kelly spun a spinner, which is pictured below, 
times. She recorded her results in the table provided. Is the experimental probability of landing on pink more likely, less likely, or equally likely in comparison to the theoretical probability?

The experimental probability is what actually happened in an experiment. In this case, Kelly spun the spinner 
times, and she landed on pink 
times; thus, our experimental probability is 
In order to compare the theoretical probability and the experimental probability let's convert the fractions into decimals so we can put them on a number line:
A probability closer to 
means that an event is more likely to occur. In this case, 
is closer to 
; thus, the experimental probability is more likely than the theoretical probability.
