Calculate experimental probability

<p>After the introduction of a new juice in the school cafeteria, a taste test is conducted to see how it is being received. Of those who participated, </p><ul><li>`40` said they preferred the new juice, </li><li>`92` preferred the old juice, and</li><li> `68` could not tell any difference. </li></ul><p>What is the probability that the next person in this survey would prefer the new juice?</p>

Calculate experimental probability

<p>Tiles with the letters from Ron's name are in a bag. Ron draws a tile at random, records the letter, and then replaces the tile in the bag. The table shows the results of Ron's experiment.</p><tableui data-variant="basic" data-headers='["Letter","Number of Result"]' data-rows='[[{"value":"R"},{"value":"`31`"}],[{"value":"O"},{"value":"`28`"}],[{"value":"N"},{"value":"`41`"}]]' />/> => </tableui><p>What is the probability that the next letter that Ron draws will be the letter O or the letter R? </p>

Calculate experimental probability

<p>Cloud Nine Furniture sold several beds yesterday. They recorded the number of beds sold in the table given below:</p><tableui data-variant="basic" data-headers='["Bed Type","Count of Bed Sold"]' data-rows='[[{"value":"Twin-size"},{"value":"`3`"}],[{"value":"Full-size"},{"value":"`6`"}],[{"value":"Queen-size"},{"value":"`4`"}],[{"value":"King-size"},{"value":"`2`"}]]' />/> => </tableui><p>Based on this data, what is the probability that the first bed sold today will be a twin-size bed or a full-size bed?</p>

Calculate experimental probability

<p>Pizza Heaven recorded how many of each type of pizza they sold today. </p> <tableui data-variant="basic" data-headers='["Pizza","Number sold"]' data-rows='[[{"value":"Veggies"},{"value":"`10`"}],[{"value":"Peppeoroni"},{"value":"`16`"}],[{"value":"Cheese"},{"value":"`12`"}],[{"value":"Mushroom"},{"value":"`2`"}]]' /> /> => </tableui><p>Based on these results, what is the probability that the next order will be a pepperoni or a mushroom pizza?</p>

Calculate experimental probability

<p>Nathan spins a spinner that is split into `4` equal sections painted purple, white, blue, and pink. </p><ul><li>The spinner lands on purple `100` times,</li><li>on white `200` times,</li><li> on blue `150` times, and</li><li> on pink `50` times. </li></ul><p>What is the probability that Nathan's next spin will land on any section of the spinner other than blue?</p>

Calculate experimental probability

<p>A board game uses a bag of lettered tiles. Mia randomly chooses a tile and then returns it to the bag. The below table shows the number of vowels and number of consonants she draws. </p><ul><li>Number of vowels : `18` </li><li>Number of consonants: `32` </li></ul><p>What is the probability that the next tile Mia chooses from the bag will not have a vowel written on it?</p>

A type of probability that is based on adequate information of the events and actual information is known as ‘experimental probability’. It is also known as Empirical Probability. It illustrates the likelihood of an event to occur based on historical data. The empirical probability can be evaluated by dividing the number of times an event occurred by the total number of times an experiment is performed.
