what is the difference between relative frequency and probability? Is she probability of a coin always half
The relative frequency of an event is defined as the number of times that the event occurs during experimental trials, divided by the total number of trials conducted.
Theoretical Probability: probability based on reasoning written as a ratio of the number of favorable outcomes to the number of possible outcomes. See also: Probability. Experimental Probability.
relative frequency can be used to estimate the probability of a coin toss. for example, if your team wins 7 matches out of 10, the estimated probability of your team winning would be 70% but it isn't the actual probability
