(06.02)A six-sided number cube labeled 1 through 6 is rolled 600 times. An odd number is rolled 272 times. Compare the experimental probability of rolling an odd number with the relative frequency of rolling an odd number and select one of the statements below that best describes the situation.

The experimental probability and relative frequency are the same.
The experimental probability is larger than the relative frequency.
The experiment probability is smaller than the relative frequency.
There is not enough information to determine the relative frequency.

Answer: The experimental probability and relative frequency are the same.

Step-by-step explanation: In the question it ask you to compare the experimental probability of rolling an odd number with the relative frequency of rolling an odd number. If you compare these two things the outcome would be the same because these two terms are the same thing.

Look at the examples provided below:

"Example: you conduct an experiment where you flip a coin 100 times. ... So the experimental probability of getting tails in 100 trials is 53%, and 47 for getting heads in 100 trials."

Experimental probability

During the party, Scoundrel offered her left paw 62.5% of the time.

62.5% • 100 = 0.625 • 100 = 62.5 times.

it wouldn't make sense to offer a paw 0.5 times, so round 62.5 to 63. After 100 trials, Jenna can expect that Scoundrel will offer the left paw 63 times.

Hope this helps im new btw :D
