Answer:

The probability is an Empirical Probability

Explanation:

The empirical probability (also know as relative frequency, or experimental probability) is the type of probability that involves the ratio of the number of outcomes in which a certain occurrence or event happens to the total number of trials, not in a theoretical sample space but in an actual experiment.

It uses the number of occurrences of an outcome within a sample set as a basis for determining the probability of that outcome.
