To find the experimental probability we need to know how many of the students prefer each activity. This information is given in the table. Then we divide this number by the total number of students surveyed.

With this in mind we have that the probability of a student favorite hobby is roller skating is:


P=(3)/(24)=(1)/(8)=0.125

The probability that a studen favorite hobby is sports is:


P=(8)/(24)=(1)/(3)=0.333
