Jede tossed a cube with faces numbered with 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 12. The results are recorded in the table. What is the largest discrepancy between the experimental and the expected probability of this experiment? The answer needs to be in percent form to the nearest whole number
The expected probability for each outcome is 1/6 or approximately 16.67%.
Calculating the experimental probability for each outcome:
Outcome 2: 10/61 ≈ 16.39%
Outcome 4: 9/61 ≈ 14.75%
Outcome 6: 6/61 ≈ 9.84%
Outcome 8: 15/61 ≈ 24.59%
Outcome 10: 13/61 ≈ 21.31%
Outcome 12: 8/61 ≈ 13.11%
The largest discrepancy between the experimental and the expected probability is for outcome 8, with a discrepancy of 7.92%.
jede tossed a cube with faces numbered with 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 12. The results are recorded in the table. What is the smallest discrepancy between the experimental and the expected probability of this experiment? Write your answer in 3 decimal places, rounded to the nearest thousandth.
