5/10

400

In a game, you spin a spinner with 8 equal sections. The spinner has the following colors: 3 red, 2 blue, and 3 green. You spin the spinner 120 times, and it lands on red 45 times, blue 30 times, and green 45 times. What is the experimental probability of the spinner landing on blue?

What is the probability of drawing a card from a standard deck of 52 cards that is either a face card (Jack, Queen, King) or a 10?


16/52 or 4/13

500

You flip a coin 500 times and it lands heads 215 times. You then flip it 200 more times, and it lands heads 95 times. What is the overall experimental probability of landing heads after 700 flips?
