Answer:
The experimental probability of rolling a prime number is 75%, which is 25% more than the theoretical probability.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : A special 8-sided die is marked with the numbers 1 to 8. It is rolled 20 times with these outcomes :
3 4 5 2 7 1 3 7 2 6 2 1 7 3 6 1 8 3 5 6
To find : The experimental probability of rolling an odd number is ____%, which is ____% more than the theoretical probability?
Solution :
1) Theoretical probability
Sample - 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8
Rolling a prime number from sample is 2,3,5,7=4
Total sample = 8
The theoretical probability of rolling a prime number is

In percentage, 0.5=50%
2) The experimental probability
Outcomes - 3 4 5 2 7 1 3 7 2 6 2 1 7 3 6 1 8 3 5 6
The outcomes that are prime are:
{ 3 2 5 7 1 3 7 2 2 1 7 3 1 3 5}
Number of favorable outcomes= 15
Total number of outcomes = 20
Now, The experimental probability of rolling a prime number is

In percentage, 0.75=75%
As 75%-50%=25%
Therefore, The experimental probability of rolling a prime number is 75%, which is 25% more than the theoretical probability.
