A. Find the theoretical probability of selecting a pink rubber band

B. Find the theoretical probability of selecting a brown rubber band
C. You repeatedly choose a rubber band from the box, record the color, and put the rubber band back in

A. The theoretical probability of selecting a pink rubber band is 36/69.
B. The theoretical probability of selecting a brown rubber band is 33/69.
C. table is not shown so I cannot answer the question.
I'm not totally sure but here is what I think.

prob(pink) = 36/69 = 12/23
prob(brown) = 33/69 = 11/23

comparing:
theoretical prob(pink) = .5125..
experimental prob(pink) = .5217
A box contains 95 pink rubber bands and 90 brown rubber bands. You select a rubber band at random
from the box. Find each probability. Write the probability as a fraction in simplest form.
a. Find the theoretical probability of selecting a pink ribber band.
b. Find the theoretical probability of selecting a brown rubber band.
c. You repeatedly choose a rubber band from the box, record the color, and put the rubber band back in
the box. The results are shown in the table below. Find the experimental probability of each color
based on the table.
