C. Chris
Chris has pulled out 3 even-numbered cards out of 4 total pulls, resulting in an experimental probability of 3/4. The theoretical probability of pulling an even-numbered card from the deck of hearts (numbered 1-5) is 2/5, since there are 2 even-numbered cards out of 5 total cards in the deck. Chris' experimental probability of 3/4 is closer to the theoretical probability of 2/5 compared to Seth's experimental probability.
Seth and Chris are pulling cards from a deck of hearts, numbered 1(Ace) through 5. Their results are listed below.
