• experimental probability

• simple probability

• compound probability

The student council randomly selected 25 students in the school to ask them to choose their favorite chips. The results of the random sample survey are in the table.

Based on the survey, what is the experimental probability that the next student that is surveyed will choose Doritos as their favorite chips?
