mandy flipped a coin 50 times. the coin landed on tails 20 times. what was the experimental probability for landing on tails? 2/5 4/5 3/5
Answer
Explanation:
Step1: Recall probability formula
Experimental probability = $\frac{\text{Number of favorable outcomes}}{\text{Total number of outcomes}}$
Step2: Identify values
Number of favorable outcomes (tails) = 20, total number of outcomes = 50
Step3: Calculate probability
$\frac{20}{50}=\frac{2}{5}$
Answer:
$\frac{2}{5}$
