iM2 #61 Theoretical vs Experimental Probability2

The table to the right shows the results of a spinner experiment. If the spinner is spun 12 times, what is the theoretical probability of landing on a KMS color?

• 2/5

• 2/12 = 1/6

• 6/12 = 1/2

• 4/12 = 1/3

How do the results compare (the theoretical compared to the experimental)?

• the theoretical probability is equal to the experimental probability

• the theoretical probability is less than the experimental probability

• the theoretical probability is greater than the experimental probability

What is the theoretical probability of the spinner landing on a multiple of 3? (percent)

• 3/8 = 37.5%

• 2/8 = 25%

• 1/8 = 12.5%

• 1/2 = 50%

Complimentary probability means ONE WHOLE. The probability of rolling a 5 or 6 on one di and the probability of rolling a 1,2,3 or 4 on another di. (circle one)

• complementary

• not complementary
