What is experimental probability?

Back

Experimental probability is the probability determined by conducting an experiment and observing the outcomes.

What is the probability of picking a red marble from a jar with 2 pink, 6 red, and 4 blue marbles?

Back

P(red) = Number of red marbles / Total marbles = 6 / (2 + 6 + 4) = 6/12 = 1/2.

What is the probability of picking a red or blue marble from a jar with 2 pink, 6 red, and 4 blue marbles?

Back

P(red or blue) = (Number of red + Number of blue) / Total marbles = (6 + 4) / 12 = 10/12 = 5/6.
