In this lesson you looked at examples of experimental probability and made decisions pertaining to the chance of an event occurring, such as the chance of a flood in the next 100 years. Experimental probability is based on past experiments to help decide whether a specific outcome may or may not occur. In the next lesson you will begin to explore theoretical probabilities. These probabilities are determined without conducting an experiment or looking at previous data.
