Debbie’s Cupcakes recently sold 3 vanilla cupcakes and 3 other cupcakes. What is the experimental probability that the next cupcake sold will be a vanilla cupcake? Write your answer as a fraction or whole number. P(vanilla cupcake) =

To find the experimental probability of selling a vanilla cupcake, we can use the formula:

[ P(text{vanilla cupcake}) = frac{text{Number of vanilla cupcakes sold}}{text{Total number of cupcakes sold}} ]

From the information given, Debbie’s Cupcakes sold 3 vanilla cupcakes and 3 other cupcakes.

So, the total number of cupcakes sold is:

3 (vanilla) + 3 (other) = 6 cupcakes in total.

Now we can calculate the probability:

[ P(text{vanilla cupcake}) = frac{3}{6} = frac{1}{2} ]

Thus, the experimental probability that the next cupcake sold will be a vanilla cupcake is:

P(vanilla cupcake) = (frac{1}{2})

This means there is a 50% chance that the next cupcake sold will be a vanilla cupcake. If you have any more questions or need further assistance, feel free to ask!
