Answer

1\text{1}

Step-by-step solution

3 steps

  1. Determine the total number of possible outcomes.

    The spinner has ten equal portions, numbered 1 to 10.
    The total number of possible outcomes is 10.

  2. Determine the number of favorable outcomes.

    We want to find the probability of landing on the number 5. There is only one section labeled with the number 5.
    The number of favorable outcomes is 1.

  3. Calculate the probability.

    The probability of an event is given by the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes to the total number of possible outcomes.

    P(landing on 5)=Number of times 5 appearsTotal number of portionsP(\text{landing on 5}) = \frac{\text{Number of times 5 appears}}{\text{Total number of portions}} P(landing on 5)=110P(\text{landing on 5}) = \frac{1}{10}

    The answer is 1 out of 10.

    Answer: 1\boxed{\text{1}} out of 10
