Example Questions

Example Question #9 :How To Find Circumference

Ashley has a square room in her apartment that measures 81 square feet. What is the circumference of the largest circular area rug that she can fit in the space?

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

我n order to solve this question, first calculate the length of each side of the room.

The length of each side of the room is also equal to the length of the diameter of the largest circular rug that can fit in the room. Since, the circumference is simply

Example Question #1 :Finding Theoretical Probability

Kelly spun a spinner, which is pictured below,次了。她在桌上provi记录她的结果ded. What is the theoretical probability of the spinner landing on the orange section?

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

The theoretical probability is what should happen. In this case, we havespaces andof those spaces is orange; thus, the theoretical probability of the spinner landing on orange should always beor

Example Question #2 :Finding Theoretical Probability

Kelly spun a spinner, which is pictured below,次了。她在桌上provi记录她的结果ded. What is the theoretical probability of the spinner landing on the yellow section?

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

The theoretical probability is what should happen. In this case, we havespaces andof those spaces is yellow; thus, the theoretical probability of the spinner landing on yellow should always beor

Example Question #3 :Finding Theoretical Probability

Kelly spun a spinner, which is pictured below,次了。她在桌上provi记录她的结果ded. What is the theoretical probability of the spinner landing on the green section?

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

The theoretical probability is what should happen. In this case, we havespaces andof those spaces is green; thus, the theoretical probability of the spinner landing on green should always be

Example Question #4 :Finding Theoretical Probability

Kelly spun a spinner, which is pictured below,次了。她在桌上provi记录她的结果ded. Is the experimental probability of landing on pink more likely, less likely, or equally likely in comparison to the theoretical probability?

Possible Answers:

Equally likely

Results can't be found based on the data provided

Less likely

More likely

Correct answer:

More likely

Explanation:

The theoretical probability is what should happen. In this case, we havespaces and这些空间是粉色;因此,理论支持bability of the spinner landing on pink should always be

The experimental probability is what actually happened in an experiment. In this case, Kelly spun the spinnertimes, and she landed on pinktimes; thus, our experimental probability is

我n order to compare the theoretical probability and the experimental probability let's convert the fractions into decimals so we can put them on a number line:

2

A probability closer tomeans that an event is more likely to occur. In this case,is closer to; thus, the experimental probability is more likely than the theoretical probability.
