If a coin is tossed 10 times, head appears 3 times. Find experimental probability of getting a head.
3 out of 10
If a dice is rolled 500 times and a 3 comes 313 times. What will be the experimental probability of 3 showing up in the dice?
313 out of 500
A letter tile is randomly selected from a bag, recorded, and replaced 100 times. The results are listed below. What is the experimental probability of selecting the letter "E"?
A = 16 E = 11 I = 29 O = 19 U = 25
11/100 or 0.11, or 11%
Pedro recorded the types of birds that visit his bird feeder. Based on the results below, what is the probability the next bird will be a chickadee?
Woodpecker = 3 Chickadee = 5 Cardinal = 1 Sparrow = 13 Blue Jay = 3
1/5, or 0.20, or 20%
Ms. French is packing for a trip. She packs a white blouse, a pink blouse, a blue blouse, and a green blouse. She also packs a black suit, a navy blue suit, and a gray suit. What is the probability that the first outfit she wears is the gray suit with a pink blouse?

Define "simple event."
When only one outcome is possible.
A six-sided die is thrown 50 times. Using the list below, how does the theoretical probability of rolling a 3 compare to the experimental probability of rolling a 3?
Number on Die VS How Many Times it Landed on that Number
1 8 2 6 3 7 4 12 5 10 6 7
The theoretical probability is higher than the experimental probability. (Theoretical = 17%, Experimental = 14%)
Define "compound event."
When one event occurs and then the second event occurs.
