You can put this solution on YOUR website! A spinner used for a game is divided into 3 sections: yellow, brown, and orange. Janie spins the spinner 18 times. The spinner lands on yellow 8 times. What is the experimental probability that the spinner does NOT land on yellow?
------
P(land on yellow) = 8/18 = 4/9
------
P(not land on yellow) = 5/9
