In the last 15 times that Lily had driven to the college, she was able to find a space in car park "A" 12 times. Estimate the probability that there will be an empty space in car park "A" the next time she drives to the college.

Based on the data provided, the estimated probability that there will be an empty space in car park "A" the next time Lily drives to the college is 80%.

Calculation: 12 times out of 15 times, the car park was not full, so the probability of finding an empty space is 12/15 = 0.8, or 80%.
