Answer: 13/28

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

Reason:

The table shows he got 26 heads out of 26+30 = 56 coin flips.

26/56 = (2*13)/(2*28) = 13/28 is the empirical or experimetnal probablity of getting heads.

Side note: 13/28 = 0.4643 = 46.43% approximately which is fairly close to 50%
