Answer:
Theoretical Probability = 50%
Experimental Probability = 40%
Step-by-step explanation:
Theoretical Probability:
Since there are only two sides to a coin, heads or tails the equation to find the theoretical probability would look like...
1/2 = .5 x 100 = 50%
Experimental Probability:
For this we need to find the total number of outcomes that were heads and the total number of tries.
16 + 24 = 40 <---- number of tries
16 <---- number of outcomes that were heads
With this information, your equation would look like this...
16/40 = .4 x 100 = 40%
Hope this helps!!!
