The theoretical probability of getting three heads when tossing three coins simultaneously is 1/8, since the probability of getting a head on any one coin toss is 1/2 and all three coins must come up heads.
The experimental probability of getting three heads in this experiment is 40/100 = 2/5.
To find the difference between the experimental and theoretical probabilities, we subtract the theoretical probability from the experimental probability:
2/5 - 1/8
= 16/40 - 5/40
= 11/40
So, the difference between the experimental and theoretical probabilities of getting three heads is 11/40.
the experiment involved tossing three coins simultaneously the experiment was carried out 100 times and it was noriced that three heads occurred 40 times what is the different between the experimental probability of getting three heads and its theoretical probability in simplet form
