Q. At Downtown Pizza, 44 of the last 66 pizzas sold had pepperoni. What is the experimental probability that the next pizza sold will have pepperoni?\newlineSimplify your answer and write it as a fraction or whole number.\newlineP( \mathrm{P}( pepperoni )= )= \square
  1. Calculate Experimental Probability: The experimental probability is based on the outcomes of past events. In this case, we are given that 44 out of the last 66 pizzas sold had pepperoni. To find the experimental probability, we divide the number of pizzas with pepperoni by the total number of pizzas sold.\newlineCalculation: P(pepperoni)=Number of pizzas with pepperoniTotal number of pizzas sold=46P(\text{pepperoni}) = \frac{\text{Number of pizzas with pepperoni}}{\text{Total number of pizzas sold}} = \frac{4}{6}
  2. Simplify Fraction: We can simplify the fraction 46\frac{4}{6} by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 22.\newlineCalculation: Simplified P(pepperoni)=(4÷26÷2)=23P(\text{pepperoni}) = \left(\frac{4 \div 2}{6 \div 2}\right) = \frac{2}{3}
