Probability = number of required outcome/number of the possible outcome
(a) To determine the theoretical probability for mary
[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{ Probability of spinner landing on grey = }\frac{\text{ number of grey}}{Total\text{ colour}} \\ \text{Probability of spinner landing on grey = }\frac{593}{1000} \\ \text{Probability of spinner landing on grey = 0.}593 \end{gathered}[/tex]
(b) To determine the experimental probabiity for mary's result
[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{Experimental probabil}ity\text{ = }\frac{\text{ number of grey}}{Total\text{ number}} \\ \text{Experimental probabil}ity\text{ = }\frac{3}{5\text{ }} \\ \text{Experimental probabil}ity=\text{ 0}.600 \end{gathered}[/tex]
(c) Assuming the spinner is fair, with a large number of spins there might be a difference between the experimental and theoretical probability but the difference will be small.
