predict the number of times each event will occur. spin the spinner 50 times event 5 1-8 on spinner

It would land on 5 either 1, 2, 3, . . ., 48, 49, or 50 times.  You can't say exactly how man times it would land on 5.

What you can say is that it would land on 5 this number of times:

(1/8)*50 = 50/8 = 25/4 = 6.25

It would land on 5 an average of 6 times.
