1. **State the problem:** We spun the spinner 3 times and it landed on a section with a star 2 times. We want to find the experimental probability of landing on a star section.
2. **Recall the formula for experimental probability:**
$$\text{Experimental Probability} = \frac{\text{Number of times event occurs}}{\text{Total number of trials}}$$
3. **Apply the values:**
Number of times landing on star = 2
Total spins = 3
4. **Calculate the probability:**
$$\text{Probability} = \frac{2}{3}$$
5. **Interpretation:** The experimental probability of landing on a star section is $\frac{2}{3}$, meaning in this experiment, the spinner landed on a star about two-thirds of the time.
