Answer:

theoretical is 15 each

experimental is Red: 13 Blue: 14 Yellow:18 Green:15

Explanation:

the theoretical probability is what should statisticly happen when you do it so if there are for outcomes with an equal chance of occurring then 1 out of every 4 or 1/4 of the time each one should happen so divide 60 by 4 and you get 15

the experimental probability is what happens when someone actually spins it 60 times and in your scenario

RESULTS HERE

Red: 13 Blue: 14 Yellow:18 Green:15

is what happened so that is the experimental probability
