Question

In a​ survey, 400 people were asked to choose one card out of five cards labeled 1 to 5. The results are shown in the table. Compare the theoretical probability and experimental probability of choosing a card with the number 3.

Number 1 2 3 4 5
Frequency 32 96 128 112 32

Answer 1

I hate math

Explanation:

Answer 2

The value of the experimental probability is greater

Explanation:

For the theoretical probability;

the probability that a card with the number 3 is selected is 1/5

We consider that the probabilities of each selection are equal, for the theoretical probability

For the experimental, we simply place the frequency of the selection 3 over the total

that will be 128/400 = 8/25

As we know that 8/25 is greater than 1/5

We can conclude that the value of the experimental probability is greater than that of the theoretical
