Question

flip a paper cup in the air and see how it lands. what is the probability the cup lands on its side? run trial ×1 run trial ×10 run trial ×100 total trials total successes percent success 0 0 0% 68% 76% 87% 93%

Explanation:

Step1: Run trials

Click on the "Run Trial ×100" button to conduct 100 trials.

Step2: Calculate probability

After running 100 trials, assume the number of times the cup lands on its side (successes) is \(n\). The probability (percent success) is calculated as \(\frac{n}{100}\times100\% = n\%\).

Answer:

The probability depends on the number of successful trials (cup landing on its side) out of the total trials. For example, if after 100 trials, 76 times it lands on its side, the probability is \(76\%\).
