Luis has 3 red marbles, 5 blue marbles, 4 yellow marbles, and 8 black marbles in a bag. He records the color marble he pulls from the bag and puts the marble back in the bag 14 times. The table below shows the frequency he pulled each color.

red; 2
blue: 4
yellow : 2
black: 4 marked out and 1 left

What are the experimental and theoretical probability of pulling a yellow marble out of the bag? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

Experimental probability


Theoretical probability

Experimental probability of pulling a yellow marble: 2/14 = 0.14

Theoretical probability of pulling a yellow marble: 4/20 = 0.20
