Question

What is the difference between theoretical and experimental probability?

Answer 1

@JackofallTradez

Answer 2

Theoretical Probability of an event is the number of ways that the event can occur
for example:
the theoretical probability of getting heads when flipping a coin is 1/2
Experimental probability refers to the probability of an event occurring when an experiment was conducted.
so if you flipped a coin 2 times and got tails twice
the experimental probability of getting heads is 0/2
