Experimental probability is the ratio of number of times the event is occurring to the total number of the trials of the experiment, this can be mathematically represented as:
Experimental probability=(number of occurrences)/(total number of trials)
from our question:
number of occurrences=54
total number of trials=160
thus;
Experimental probability=54/160=0.3375

Answer: 0.3375
