Number of White Balls Selected Number of Red Balls Selected

Bowl A 5 15
Bowl B 16 4
Bowls A and B contain a number of white and red balls. Simon repeatedly selected a ball from both bowls and recorded the results in a table. Using Simon’s results, what is the experimental probability of picking a red ball from Bowl A? The answer needs to be in percent form.

The experimental probability of picking a red ball from Bowl A can be calculated by taking the total number of red balls selected from Bowl A (15) and dividing it by the total number of balls selected from Bowl A (5 + 15 = 20).

15 red balls / 20 total balls = 0.75

Therefore, the experimental probability of picking a red ball from Bowl A is 75%.

So, the answer is 75%.
