Theoretical Probability for an event is: The number of possible outcomes in which the event does occur ------------------------------------------------- The total number of all possible outcomes
Experimental probability for an event is: the number of times right ------------------------------------------------- number of times tried
In the video it says Theoretical probability for an event is... The number of possible outcomes in which an event does occur _______________________________________________________________
The total number of possible outcomes
In the video it doesn't explain experimental probability so I will tell you in my own words.
Experimental probability is when you actually do the experiment to figure out the answer.
ex. if you had a spinner and two thirds were orange and one third was red you and you spun it three times you would get orange 2/3 and red 1/3 times but with experimental you actually do the experiment and you might get orange 3/3 times!
The reasonable (mathematical) chance of something happening
Say you were tossing a coin. The theoretical chance of landing on heads is ½. You experiment with this. You toss the coin 10 times. Say it lands on heads only 3 times. The experimental probability of landing on heads is 3/10 but the theoretical probability of landing on heads is ½.
Theoretical Probability is a reasonable guess of what the possible chance of each outcome is. For example, say if I want to role a dice 3 times and roll a 5 twice, the the chances of rolling a five is 3/18. Experimental probability, however, is when you actually roll the dice, and record the results. So, if I rolled the dice 3 times and rolled a 5 twice, then my chances were 2/18. -The Awesome Aidan
