### Spinner Probability Experiment

#### Overview
A spinner has equally-sized areas that are colored blue, pink, or yellow.

![Spinner Image](image-link) 
(Note: The image shows a spinner divided into eight sections with the numbers 1 through 8, colored blue, pink, and yellow.)

#### Experiment Data
The experiment chart below indicates the results after spinning the arrow ten times.
- **Key:**
  - \( B = \text{blue} \)
  - \( P = \text{pink} \)
  - \( Y = \text{yellow} \)
  - \( O = \text{odd} \)
  - \( 3B \) means that the spinner landed on 3, which is blue.

| Trial Number | 1  | 2  | 3  | 4  | 5  | 6  | 7  | 8  | 9  | 10 |
|--------------|----|----|----|----|----|----|----|----|----|----|
| Outcome       | 8Y | 6B | 3B | 1B | 8Y | 3B | 7P | 1B | 7P | 1B |

#### Task
Fill in the following chart for the probability of the results of the next spin.

#### Event Probability Table

- **Instructions:**
  - Write the probability notation using symbols.
  - Use \( B \) for blue, \( P \) for pink, \( Y \) for yellow.
  - You can use words for "or" and "and".
  - Use a space between letters and conjunctions.
