Question

The teacher of a seventh-grade class flipped a coin 100 times. The students recorded the results in the table shown below:

Answer 1

The experimental probability is 6% higher than the theoretical probability

Answer 2

Answer:  Third option is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of heads = 56

Number of tails = 44

Total number of flips = 100

So, Probability of getting head is given by

$\dfrac{56}{100}=0.56$

Theoretical probability of getting head is given by

$\dfrac{50}{100}=0.50$

There is a difference of

0.56-0.50=0.06 = 6%

Hence, the experimental probability is 6% higher than the theoretical probability.

Therefore, Third option is correct.
