To find the experimental probability of getting heads, you divide the number of times heads appeared by the total number of tosses:
Experimental Probability of Heads = Number of Heads / Total Number of Tosses
Experimental Probability of Heads = 12 / (12 + 18)
Experimental Probability of Heads = 12 / 30
Experimental Probability of Heads = 0.4
Therefore, the experimental probability of getting heads is 0.4.
The answer is 0.4.
