Answer:Difference between experimental Probability and the theoretical probability is 0.25

Explanation:

A spinner has 4 parts. In this case,1,2,3 and 4.

There are 10 spins.

If the experimental Probability p(getting a 3)= 0.5

Thetheoritical Probability p(getting a 3)= 1/4 =0.25

Difference between experimental Probability and theoretical probability= 0.5-0.25=0.25
