The experimental probability of someone's favorite activity being sledding is the number of people who favored sledding divided by the total number of respondents:

Experimental probability = 40/150

To simplify this fraction, we can divide both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common factor, which is 10:

Experimental probability = 4/15

Therefore, the experimental probability that someone's favorite activity is sledding is 4/15.
