Mark spun the spinner 26 times and landed on yellow four times. He wants to know the probability of landing on yellow next? Is this theoretical or experimental probability?

1 answer

This would be theoretical probability, as Mark is asking for the likelihood of landing on yellow based on a predetermined set of outcomes. The probability of landing on yellow next would be the same as the overall probability of landing on yellow, which would be 4 out of 26, or 4/26.
