You can  put this solution on YOUR website! A spinner is divided into 9 equal sections. There are 4 yellow sections and 5 green sections. The spinner is spun 45 times. Which proportion can be used to find the number of times, B, that the spinner could be expected to land on a green section? 
 
--- 
P(green on one spin) = 5/9 
---- 
Expected number of green in 45 spins: (5/9)45 = 25
