The document describes two probability experiments: spinning a die 30 times and recording results to calculate the probability of landing on 5, and spinning a spinner 20 times to calculate the probability of landing on red. It asks the reader to conduct the experiments, record their results, and compare the experimental probabilities to the theoretical probabilities of 1/6 for the die and the spinner's designated probability for each color section.
