Front

What is Experimental Probability?

Back

What actually happens in trials.

Front

If you flip a coin 10 times and get 7 heads, what is the experimental probability of getting heads?

Back

Front

What is the formula for calculating theoretical probability?

Back

P(Event) = Number of favorable outcomes / Total number of outcomes

Front

What is the difference between experimental and theoretical probability?

Back

Experimental is based on actual trials; theoretical is based on expected outcomes.
