Use the table to answer the question.
Outcomes 2 4 6 8 10 12
Frequency 10 9 6 15 13 8
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%.
The experimental probabilities from the table are as follows:
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 expected probability is for outcome 8, with a difference of 7.92%.
