Seven different names were put into a hat. A name is chosen 106 times and the name Josh is chosen 19 times. What is the THEORETICAL probability of the name Josh being chosen?

Respuesta :

Theoretical probability is when the probability is the same no matter what the experiment says. So, the theoretical probability of picking the name Josh is 1/7. This is because Josh has one chance out of seven names of being picked.

We will see that the theoretical probability that the name Josh is chosen is P = 1/7.

How to find the theoretical probability?

7 names are put on a hat, theoretically, we assume that all the names have the same probability of being randomly drawn from the hat. So it does not depend on the given information, that would give us the experimental probability.

Then, for the theoretical probability we will have the quotient between the number of names in the hat that are Josh (there is only one) and the total number of names in the hat, this gives:

P(Josh) = 1/7
