Question

You toss two dimes 24 times and record the results. The table shows the frequency and the expenmental probability of each outcomo Outcomes head and head head and tail tail and tail Frequency 4 15 5 Experimental Probability 0.167 0.625 0208 Suppose you tossed the dimes 120 times. How many times would you expect an outcome of "tail and tail​

Answer 1

expected probability of "tail and tail" = 1/3

Explanation:

Experimental probability is the probability of an event occurring based on experimental results.
Expected probability is the theoretical probability of an event occurring and is NOT based on experimental result.s

As there are 3 possible outcomes, the expected probability of each outcome would be 1/3.

⇒ expected probability of "tail and tail" = 1/3

As you increase the number of times you toss the dimes, the experimental probability will gradually get closer to the expected probability.
