Given

Total divisions = 5

divisions with white color = 3

divisions with grey color = 1

divisions with black color = 1

Find

Theoretical probability of landing on either white or grey

Step-by-step explanation

Theoritical P(White | Grey) = Favourable Outcomes/Totala Outcomes

= 4/5

= 0.8

Experimental Probability(White | Grey) = (31+8)/50

= 39/50

= 0.78

Final Answer

Theoritical Probability = 0.8

Experimental Probability = 0.78
