What is experimental probability?

Back

Experimental probability is the ratio of the number of times an event occurs to the total number of trials or experiments conducted.

Front

How do you calculate experimental probability?

Back

Experimental probability is calculated using the formula: P(E) = Number of successful outcomes / Total number of trials.

What is the experimental probability of rolling a number less than 7 on a dice rolled 12 times?

Back

The experimental probability of rolling a number less than 7 is 100% because all numbers on a standard dice are less than 7.

What is the total number of outcomes when rolling a standard six-sided dice?

Back

The total number of outcomes when rolling a standard six-sided dice is 6.

What is the difference between theoretical probability and experimental probability?

Back

Theoretical probability is based on expected outcomes in a perfect world, while experimental probability is based on actual results from experiments.
