The experimental probability of someone's favorite activity being sledding can be calculated by dividing the number of people who preferred sledding by the total number of respondents.
Probability = Number of people who preferred sledding / Total number of respondents
Probability = 40/150
Probability = 4/15
Therefore, the experimental probability that someone's favorite activity is sledding is 4/15.
