Arianna saw 10 blue, 8 red, and 42 white cars drive by her house in 1 hour. What is the experimental probability of her seeing a white car?

number of blue car = 10

number of red car = 8

number of white car = 42

The experimental probability of seeing a white car can be calculated below


p(w)=\frac{\text{ number of white car}}{\text{total number of car }}=(42)/(10+8+42)=(42)/(60)=(21)/(30)=(7)/(10)
