Question

 A circle is divided into sections are equal there are six purple sections and five orange sections Kelly spins a spinner on the circle 50 times. Write a proportion that will help figure out the number of times that the spinner will land on the orange section.

Answer 1

there are 5 orange sections out of a total of 11 sections (6+5=11)

5/11=n/50

cross multiply

11*n=5*50

11n=250

n=250/11

n=22.727272...

the spinner will (theoretically) land on an orange section about 23 times

the spinner will land on a purple section about 27 times
