Using the probability concept, we have that:

a) The experimental probability is of 0.75 = 75%.

b) The theoretical probability is of 0.5 = 50%.

c) As the number of trials increases, the probabilities are expected to get closer, though they might not be equal.

<h3>What is a probability?</h3>

A probability is given by the <u>number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes</u>. For an experimental probability, these number of outcomes are taken from previous trials. A theoretical probability is calculated before any trial, and as the number of trials increase, the experimental and theoretical probabilities get closer.

From the table, there were 20 trials, and 2 + 3 + 4 + 4 + 2 = 15 resulted in even numbers, hence the experimental probability is:

p = 15/20 = 0.75 = 75%.

For a fair machine, even and odd numbers should be equally as likely, hence the theoretical probability is of 0.5 = 50%.

For item c, we have that as the number of trials increases, the probabilities are expected to get closer, though they might not be equal.
