Tia performed an experiment where she flipped a coin 200 times. The coin landed heads up 92 times and tails up 108 times. Which statement about this experiment is true?

The ratio 92/200 represents the experimental probability of the coin landing heads up in this experiment.


The ratio 92/200 represents the number of trials in this experiment.

The ratio 92/100 represents the theoretical probability of the coin landing heads up in this experiment.

The classic definition of probability is: the probability is the ratio of the number of favorable events (m) divided by the number of possible events (n):

[tex] Pr=\dfrac{m}{n} [/tex].

Tia performed an experiment where she flipped a coin 200 times. The coin landed heads up 92 times and tails up 108 times (check that 92+108 is exactly 200). Then the theoretical probability of the coin landing heads up in this experiment is

[tex] Pr=\dfrac{92}{200} [/tex].

Answer: correct choice is A (the theoretical probability is 1/2).
