Answer 1

The experimental probability is given as:

`P(\text{event)}=\frac{\text{ number of times event occurs}}{\text{ total number of trials}}`

In this case the total number of trials is 18 and the number of times the event occurs is 4, then:

`P(blond)=(4)/(18)=(2)/(9)`

Therefore the probability that the next client to get a haircut have blond hair is 2/9.
