Experimental and Theoretical Probability Quiz

Experimental Probability will equal or be very close to theoretical probability if there is:

• an unfair coin

• enough trials

• different outcomes

• none of the above

A bag contains 3 yellow marbles, 2 red marbles, and 1 blue marble. The probability of not getting a blue marble is:

• all of the above

Which probability experiment has the greatest number of possible outcomes?

• tossing a coin

• spinning a spinner with 7 equal sectors all of different colours

• rolling a six-sided die

• taking one marble from a bag with 2 red, 1 black and 1 yellow marbles

What is the experimental probability of drawing a black face card from a deck of playing cards with the jokers removed?

• all of the above

Two coins are tossed simultaneously. What is the probability of tossing two heads?

• 25%

• 50%

• 75%

• 100%

A six-sided die is rolled. What is the probability of rolling a 4?

During a probability experiment, a 6-sided die was rolled 18 different times. The results are shown in the bar graph.

What is the experimental probability of rolling a "2"?

During a probability experiment, a 6-sided die was rolled 18 different times. The results are shown in the bar graph.

According to this experimental, what is the average value of the rolled die?

• 5

• 60
