A teacher says, "If I roll a fair six-sided die 60 times, I would expect each number to appear about 10 times." Explain why the teacher is correct.

A spinner has five equal sections numbered 1 to 5. It is spun 30 times and lands on 1 eight times.

Work out the experimental probability of the spinner landing on 1.
