A probability of 0.5: A probability of ¾: A probability of 1: Consider the letters in the state of NORTH CAROLINA. Suppose you took each letter of the word and put them into a bag. Find the probability of picking out the following at random. P(choosing an A) P(choosing a consonant) P(choosing a letter) P(choosing a K) P(choosing an O or R) P(choosing a vowel) Use the spinner on the left to answer questions 12 – 20. Write your answer as a fraction, decimal and a percent. P(even number) P(negative P(odd number) number) *ALL SECTIONS ARE EQUAL* P(multiple of 3) P(factor of 24) P(prime number) You spin the spinner 50 times. It landed on 24 ten times. Compare the theoretical According to the result of the According to the theoretical experiment, find the probability, how many times and experimental experimental probability of should the spinner have landed probabilities. landing on 24. on 24? The following question was asked to survey 6th graders at a Wake County middle school: What college in North Carolina do you want to attend? Below are the results.
