Empirical Method
We conduct the experiment repeatedly. Each repetition of the experiment is called a trial. As the number of trials increases the probability of A is better approximated by
The probability of event A is approximated by the relative frequency of the event A.
Recall relative frequency is the frequency divided by total.
If we use computers to simulate the experiment we need to ensure our model is accurate to the real world.
Also called relative frequency approximation.
