Answer

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate total number of runners

Total number of runners = 73 (small - sized) + 73 (other - sized) = 146

Step2: Calculate experimental probability

Experimental probability (P(\text{small})=\frac{\text{Number of small - sized T - shirts taken}}{\text{Total number of T - shirts taken}}=\frac{73}{146})

Answer:

(\frac{73}{146})
