Answer:
The experimental probability is 1/6, and the theoretical probability is 1/4. The theoretical probability is greater than the experimental probability in this trial.
-------------------
Explanation:
Theoretical probability is the mathematically calculated probability of the circumstances occurring.
There is a 1/2 chance of rolling an even number, and a 1/2 chance of flipping a coin on heads.
Since the question asks for the possibility of both happening, multiply those together to find the probability:
The theoretical probability of rolling an even number and then flipping a head is 1/4.
Now we'll focus on Taka's trials.
Experimental probability is the probability that is taken from results of a trial.
Take the results, and see if they match the criteria of rolling an even number and flipping heads.
The results that are bolded fit the criteria:
<span>1 H, 4 T, 1 H, 5 T, 2 H, 3 T, 6 T, 2 H, 3 T, 5 T, 3 H, 4 T
</span>
Taka managed to roll and flip the coin to fit the criteria 2 times out of 12. Converted into a fraction, it is 2/12. Simplified, the experimental probability is 1/6.
