Rory was with some friends outside an ice cream parlor. He noticed that one out of every four people bought a vanilla cone. He wants to know the estimated probability that five randomly picked people entering the shop will not buy vanilla cones. How could you design a simulation of the scenario?
A. Spin a spinner with five equal sections five times. On the spinner, one section represents vanilla and four sections represent other flavors.
B. Spin a spinner with five equal sections four times. On the spinner, one section represents vanilla and four sections represent other flavors.
C. Spin a spinner with four equal sections five times. On the spinner, one section represents vanilla and three sections represent other flavors.
D. Spin a spinner with four equal sections four times. On the spinner, one section represents vanilla and three sections represent other flavors.

C. would be the correct device to use in trials.

But the actual probability is:

(1-1/4)^5

243/1024

(about 23.73% chance none of the five chose vanilla)
