A monk crossbred plants which can have purple or white flowers and obtained 660 plants with white flowers and 368 plants with purple flowers Find the experiment class=

Respuesta :

Given:

Number of white flowers plants = 660

Number of purple flowers plants = 368

To find the experimental probability that a plant had each type of flower.

Formula

Experimental probability is found by repeating an experiment and observing the outcomes.

P(event) = (the number of time the event occurs) ÷ (total number of trial)

Here,

Total number of plants = (660+368) = 1028

Now,

Probability of white flower plant = [tex]\frac{660}{1028}[/tex] = 0.64

And,

Probability of purple flower plant = [tex]\frac{368}{1028}[/tex] = 0.36

Hence,

The experimental probability of white flower is 0.64 and the experimental probability of purple flower is 0.36.
