Experimental Probability

Question 13 • *CR Expository Reading and Writing S1 [E4250OX]

Which statements about experimental probability are true?

Answer
A
Experimental probability is written as a ratio.
B
Experimental probability includes the number of possible outcomes.
C
Experimental probability is found by conducting trials of an experiment.
D
Experimental probability includes the number of times an event occurs in the numerator, and the total number of trials in the denominator.
E
Experimental probability includes the number of times an event occurs in the denominator, and the total number of trials in the numerator.

Explanation

Experimental probability is expressed as a ratio and is determined by carrying out trials of an experiment. Its formula is the number of times the event occurs divided by the total number of trials, so the event count goes in the numerator and the trial count in the denominator. The number of possible outcomes is used in theoretical probability, not as a required part of experimental probability.
