The experimental probability that the next bagel sold will be a poppy seed bagel can be calculated by dividing the number of poppy seed bagels sold by the total number of bagels sold:
Experimental probability = Number of poppy seed bagels / Total number of bagels
= 4 / (6 + 6 + 4)
= 4 / 16
= 1/4
Therefore, the experimental probability is 1/4 or 0.25.
Sebastian's Bagel Shop recorded how many bagels it recently sold in each flavor.
