Of the last 88 contestants on a game show, 32 won a prize. What is the experimental probability that the next contestant will win a prize?

Simplify your answer and write it as a fraction or whole number

32/88

To find the experimental probability that the next contestant will win a prize, we need to divide the number of contestants who won a prize by the total number of contestants.

In this case, out of the last 88 contestants, 32 won a prize. So, the experimental probability is calculated as:

Experimental Probability = Number of contestants who won a prize / Total number of contestants

Experimental Probability = 32 / 88

To simplify this fraction, we can divide both the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 8:

Experimental Probability = (32 ÷ 8) / (88 ÷ 8)

Experimental Probability = 4 / 11

Therefore, the experimental probability that the next contestant will win a prize is 4/11.
