Answer

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate total cupcakes sold

$3 + 3=6$

Step2: Calculate experimental - probability

The number of vanilla cupcakes sold is 3. The experimental probability $P$ (vanilla cupcake) is the number of vanilla cupcakes sold divided by the total number of cupcakes sold. So $P=\frac{3}{6}=\frac{1}{2}$

Answer:

$\frac{1}{2}$
