Question

A computer generates 50 integers from 1 to 5 at random. The results are recorded in the table. What is the experimental probability of the computer generating a 4?

Outcome Number of times
1 5
2 16
3 9
4 14
5 6

Answer 1

the possible chances are 16,14, or 6

14 could be the answer due to the number in the 4's place

Answer 2

28%

Explanation:

A computer generates 50 integers from 1 to 5 at random. The results are recorded in the table.

Outcome Number of times

1 5

2 16

3 9

4 14

5 6

We have to find the experimental probability of computer generating is

Probability =
`(n(E))/(n(S))`

Where n (E) = number of favorable events

n (S) = sample set of total events

P(4) =
`(14)/((5+16+9+14+6))` =
`(14)/(50)`

= 0.28 ≈ 28%

Therefore, experimental probability is 28%.
