Answer:

Part A: 2/5 or 0.4 or 40%

Part B: 1/2 or 0.5 or 50%

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A:

Experimental probability is # of times event occurs / total # of trials

16/40

Simplifies to 2/5 or 0.4 or 40%

Part B:

Theoretical probability is the # of favorable outcomes / out of total possible outcomes.

Since a coin is 2 sided and we favor heads up in this case.

The theoretical probability is 1/2 or 0.5 or 50%
