Experimental probability.
Chat with our AI personalities
The 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.
It is empirical (or experimental) probability.
It is the probability of an event calculated from repeated trials of an experiment.
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.
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.
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.
