JudyThe probability that is based on repeated trials of an experiment is called empirical or experimental probability. It is calculated by dividing the number of favorable outcomes by the total number of trials conducted. As more trials are performed, the empirical probability tends to converge to the theoretical probability.

What is a probability is based on repeated trials of an experiment?
It is empirical (or experimental) probability.
What does empirical probability mean?
It is the probability of an event calculated from repeated trials of an experiment.
What are the requirements for the binomial probability distribution?
The requirements are that there are repeated trials of the same experiment, that each trial is independent and that the probability of success remains the same.
How can you use simulations to estimate probability?
Experimental or empirical probability is estimated from repeated trials of an experiment. However, instead of actually carrying out the experiment a very large number of times, it may be possible to simulate them.
Can a binomial experiment be used to find the probability of 4 outcomes of .20 and 16?
If the question is about 4 successful outcomes out of 16 trials, when the probability of success in any single trial is 0.20 and independent of the outcomes of other trials, then the answer is, yes, the binomial experiment can be used.
