Ron randomly pulls out a pen of a box that contains one red two black and three blue pens. He does this four times replacing the pen each time, but pulls out a blue pen only one time. Ron concludes that the observed frequency of pulling a blue pen will eventually be closer to the expected frequency, based on the theoretical probability of pulling a pen, which reasons best supports his conclusions

Question

Responses
A. The theoretical probability of pulling a blue pen, based on the expected frequency, will get closer to 1/2 as the number of trials increases
B. The experimental probability of pulling a blue pen based on the
Observed frequency, will get closer to 1/3 as the number of trials increases
C. The theoretical probability of pulling a blue pen based on the expected frequency will get closer to 1/3 as the number of trials increases.
D. The experimental probability of pulling a blue pen based on the
Observed frequency, will get closer to 1/2 as the number of trials increases

Answer 1

B. The experimental probability of pulling a blue pen based on the observed frequency will get closer to 1/3 as the number of trials increases.
