Question

Tim throws darts at a dartboard that has numbers one through 20 in a bull’s-eye in the middle. 10 throws a dart 50 times, and he hits the bull’s-eye 10 times. What is the experimental probability that Tim hits the bull’s-eye? Tim throws darts at a dartboard that has numbers one through 20 and a bull’s-eye in the middle.

A.) 1/50

B.) 1/10

C.) 1/2

D.) 1/5

Answer 1

Answer:

D.) 1/5

Explanation:

Experimental probability is the ratio of the number of successes to the number of trials.

In this case, success is a bulls-eye.  Tim had 10 bulls-eyes.  The total number of trials  is 50.  This makes the experimental probability 10/50, or 1/5.

Answer 2

Answer:

The answer is D. 1/5 Hopefully this helps!
