Before playing a game that uses a spinner, you decide to examine the fairness of the spinner. The spinner is divided into 5 equally-sized sectors that are numbered 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5.

You spin the spinner 10,000 times and notice that 5 is spun 203 times.

Which statement best describes the fairness of the spinner?

Responses:

There is not enough information to determine if the spinner is probably fair.


The spinner is probably not fair because 5 was spun 203 times which is far less than expected.


The spinner is probably fair because 5 was spun approximately the number of times expected.
