Experimental Probability is:

• What Will happen 
• What actually happens
• What should happen
• What I think Happens

Theoretical Probability is?

• What Should happen
• What does happen
• What Will Happen
• What I want to Happen

If the spinner was spun 50 times and landed on 11 fifteen times, which statement is true?

• The experimental probability of landing on 11 is 1/8 while the theoretical probability of landing on 11 is 3/10

• The theoretical probability of landing on 11 is 12.5% while the experimental probability of landing on 11 is 30%

• The experimental probability of landing on 11 is less than the theoretical probability of landing on 11

• The theoretical probability of landing on 11 is equal to the experimental probability of landing on 11
