Timmy flipped a coin one hundred times. He got 62 heads and 38 tails. Which statement best describes this situation?

A) 32% is the experimental probability of getting a head on a coin flip in this situation.

B) 62% is the theoretical probability of getting a head on a coin flip.

C) 62% is the experimental probability of getting a head on a coin flip in this situation.

D) 68% is the theoretical probability of getting a tail on a coin flip in this situation.

Experimental probability is the probability that is gotten frm experiment

theoretical is from calculating it with math

so we look at the ones with experimental probabiilty and cross the anwers out with theoretical probaility (cross out B and D)

look at others

probaility is (desired outcomes) / (total possible outcomes)

find total possible by adding

62+38=100

head=62

tails=38

proability of

heads=62/100=62%

tails=38/100=38%

look at choices A and C

A, 32% heads

C, 62% heads

the answer is obviously C since 68% heads is correct

answer is C
