Answer:

1/3

Explanation:

Here in this question, we are to estimate the experimental probability.

Now, to estimate the experimental probability, we shall be looking at previous attempts.

Thus, the probability that he would hit his next target would be; number of previous hits/number of total trials

From the question, number of previous hits were 10 and the number of total trials = 30

The probability he is hitting the next ball is thus 10/30 = 1/3
