Answer:

52 cards / 4 suits = 13 cards of each suit.

Theoretically picking a heart would be 13/52 = 1/4 probability.

Experimentally she picked 15 hearts out of 80 total tries. for a 15/80 = 3/16 probability, which is less than the theoretical probability.

1/4 - 3/16 = 1/16

The answer is A.

Explanation:

The right answer is A - The theoretical probability of choosing a heart is StartFraction 1 over 16 EndFraction greater than the experimental probability of choosing a heart
