A card is drawn one at a time from a
well-shuffled deck of 52 cards. In 11
repetitions of this experiment, 1 king
is drawn. If E is the event in which a
king is drawn in the 11 trials, find the
experimental probability P(E).
P(E) = 1/?

Answer: 1/11

====================================================

Step-by-step explanation:

The experimental probability is a fraction of the form A/B

A = number of times a king shows up

B = number of trials conducted

In this case, A = 1 and B = 11.

-------------

Side notes:

1/11 = 0.0909 = 9.09% approximately

Contrast this with the theoretical probability of drawing a king, which is 4/52 = 0.0769 = 7.69% approximately
