Shawn's Breakfast Goodies recently sold 3 blueberry muffins and 3 other muffins. What is the experimental probability that the next muffin sold will be a blueberry muffin?

The experimental probability can be expressed in three ways:

Fraction Form: 3/6 or 1/2

Decimal Form: 0.5

Percent Form: 50%

Step-by-step explanation:

Experimental probability is expressed as:

(Favorable outcomes) / (Total outcomes)

The favorable outcome in this situation is blubbery muffins. There were 3 blueberry muffins sold, so this is the numerator of our fraction.

To find the total outcomes we add 3 + 3, which equals 6. This will be the denominator of our fraction.

The fraction used to express experimental probability will look like this: 3/6

We can further simplify this to 1/2.

3 ÷ 3 = 1

6 ÷ 3 = 2

To find a decimal, we divide 1 ÷ 2 = 0.5

Multiply this by 100 to get a percentage, 0.5 x 100 = 50%

x=30
