Over the past year, Becky has enjoyed 7 of the 9 movies recommended by her local newspaper. She wants to design a spinner she can use to simulate this situation and predict the probability that she will enjoy each of the next 5 movies the paper recommends.How should Becky divide her spinner to best simulate this situation?

Becky enjoyed 7 out of 9 recommended movies, so the probability she enjoys one is 7/9. To model that probability fairly, the spinner should have 9 equal-sized sections, with 7 sections representing “enjoy” and 2 representing “not enjoy.” The correct choice is 9 equal-sized sections.
