Heads or Tails outcome's
Yesterday me and Charlotte flipped a fifty cent coin 25 times to see what the outcome was,
after that we had to turn then into percentages and fractions this was what we got: Table 1: Heads 12 48% Tails 13 52%
We then repeated the experiment and here are our new results.
Table 2: Heads 16 64%, Tails 9 36%
For table 3 we had to combine Table 1 and 2 so we had 50 outcomes to compare our percentages.
Table 3: Heads 29 58% Tails 22 42%
For table 4 me and Charlotte combined our Table 3 with Marlin and Kahlo’s Table 3
to make a table 4 and see what happens to our percentages with 100 outcomes.
Table 4: Heads 55 55% Tails 45 45%
You can see from our results when we added our outcomes together so we had a bigger data
set the percentages became closer to the expected probability of 50/50.
I think if we did even more we might even get to 50/50.
Hello Isabelle, I am Arielle from your class.
ReplyDeleteI like how you wrote the percentage on each one so we can see the difference between heads and tails and see how close the results were.
Maybe next time you could also add the fraction of it as well.
other than that I wouldn't change a thing, would you?
