Gina spins a penny 100 times and it lands head side up 38 times. Explain why Gina's experimental probability may be different from the theoretical probability of spinning a coin.

XxXbbgCorinneXxX:

theoretical probability is a coin will land on heads 50% of the time 50% of 100 = 50 since it only landed on heads 38 times, this was less than the theoretical probability of 50
