Question 120786: In excercises 34-36,use the spinner to find the probability. The spinner is divided into equal parts.The spinner numbers are 1-12 in a circle
If you spin the spiner 100 times, how many times do you expect it to stop on a number less than 10?
Any help with this equation would be Greatly appreciated.

NUMBERS 1 TO 9 MAKE UP 9/12 OF THE TOTAL AREA THEREFORE 9/12=.75 OR COVER 75 % OF THE CHANCES.
100*.75=75 CHANCES OUT OF 100 SHOULD BE EXPECTED TO LAND ON A NUMBER<10.
