The theoretical probability of spinning any one of the five colors is 20%.; The theoretical probability of spinning green is equal to the experimental probability of spinning green.; If Yuri spins the spinner 600 more times and records results, the experimental probability of spinning orange will get closer to the theoretical probability of spinning orange.
