The theoretical probability of spinning an odd number is equal to _________. The experimental probability of spinning an odd number is equal to __________. Therefore, the theoretical probability of spinning an odd number is __________ the experimental probability of spinning an odd number.
A. 1/9
B. 1/2
C. 5/9
D. 2/3
E. greater than
F. less than
1 answer
The theoretical probability of spinning an odd number is equal to A. 1/9. The experimental probability of spinning an odd number is equal to C. 5/9. Therefore, the theoretical probability of spinning an odd number is F. less than the experimental probability of spinning an odd number.
