The total number of times the spinner will land on red or purple is 72 and this can be determined by using the given data.
Given :
Kevin has a spinner that has 10 equal sections and 2 sections of each color—red, blue, green, yellow, and purple.
Kevin spins the spinner 180 times.
According to the data, there are four sections of red and blue out of ten sections. So, the chances of getting red or green every time are 4/10 every time Kevin spins.
Therefore, the total number of times the spinner will land on red or green is given by:
= 180 × [tex]\frac{4}{10}[/tex]
Multiply 180 by 4 in the above expression.
= [tex]\frac{720}{10}[/tex]
Divide 720 by 10 in the above expression.
= 72
So, the total number of times the spinner will land on red or purple is 72.
