James conducted an experiment with 4 possible outcomes. He determined that the experimental probability of event A happening is 10 out of 50. The theoretical probability of event A happening is 1 out of 4. Which action is most likely to cause the experimental probability and theoretical probabilities for each event in the experiment to become closer? PLZ HAP

By completing the experiment a few more times and combining the results to the trails already done 

Answer:

Increase the number of trials to cause the experimental probability and theoretical probabilities for each event in the experiment to become closer.

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of an event is computed by dividing the favorable outcomes by the total outcomes.

Experimental probabilities are obtained by conducting the experiment. Whereas the theoretical probabilities are computed using the theoretical values instead of actually conducting the experiment.

To get the the experimental probability and theoretical probability closer one can increase the number of trials.

In this case the experimental probability is, [tex]\frac{10}{50}=0.20[/tex]

And the theoretical probability is, [tex]\frac{1}{4} = 0.25[/tex]

To get the experimental probability closer to the theoretical probability the number of trials should be more than 4.
