Experimental Versus Theoretical Probability: Sample FAST Questions

Students use a simulation of a simple experiment to find experimental probabilities and compare them to the theoretical probability. They learn that a short run can land far from the theoretical value, and that more trials pull the experimental result toward it.

How the FAST tests this benchmark

On the FAST, students read a table of simulation results, compute the experimental probability in the equation editor, and answer multiple choice items comparing it to the theoretical value. Items also check whether students expect more trials to narrow the gap.

Skills students need

  • Find an experimental probability from simulation results
  • Compare an experimental probability to the theoretical probability
  • Explain why more trials narrow the gap between the two
