Question

the experimental probability of hearing thunder on any given day in Ohio is 30%. out of 600 days, on about how many days can ohioans expect to hear thunder

Answer 1

180 days

Explanation:

Experimental probability is referred to as the probability of an event occurring when an experiment was conducted.

Normally, the probability of an event is being determined through an actual experiment.

Here given that the experimental probability of hearing thunder on any given day in Ohio is 30% out of 600 days.

i.e. out of 100 days we can expect the no of days to hear thunder = 30

Hence for 600 days we find that expected days to hear thunder

= 600(30)/100 = 180 days.
