A large box contains buttons with pictures of animals. There are four different animals. A button is drawn and replaced. In 100 trials, 35 buttons with cats were drawn. What is the probability that the next button will be a different animal? A. The experimental probability is 35%. B. The experimental probability is 65%. C. The theoretical probability is 35%. D. The theoretical probability is 65%.
@Yinshy Lets start by concluding whether the probability is theoretical or experimental. What is your guess?
theoretical
100-35 = 65 it means, The theoretical probability is 65%.

Correct. Now, here is something interesting. If we do 100 - 35, it equals 65. If we do 100 - 65, it equals 35. If 35 buttons with cats were drawn, then the theoretical probability would be 65%. And apparently someone is determined to help you before I do, but I hope you understand. :)
