Detailed explanation-1: -Experimental probability is determined by the actual results of an experiment. If a fair die is rolled 6 times and 3 is rolled 2 out of the 6 times, the experimental probability of landing on the number 3 is 2/6 or 1/3. Experimental probability is subject to change because the results of an experiment may change.
Detailed explanation-2: -There are six possible outcomes-1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6. The probability of getting any of the numbers is 1/6. As the event is an equally likely event so the possibility of getting any number is the same in this case it is 1/6 or 50/3%.
Detailed explanation-3: -Mathematically, the formula for the experimental probability is defined by; Probability of an Event P(E) = Number of times an event occurs / Total number of trials.
Detailed explanation-4: -The total number of ways to roll an 8 with 3 dice is therefore 21, and the probability of rolling an 8 is 21/216, which is less than 5/36.
