Answer:

Experimental : 39/75

Theoretical : 37.5/75

Step-by-step explanation:

If it lands on heads 36 times and has been tossed a total of 75 times, we subtract 36 from 75 to find the number of times it landed on tails and the experimental probability.

75 - 36 = 39

39/75 is the experimental probability

There are only 2 outcomes when tossing a coin, heads and tails.

So the theoretical probability is 75 / 2.

75/2 = 37.5

37.5/75 is the theoretical probability.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Exper. prob. of landing on tails:  (75-36) / 75 = 39/75 = 0.52

Theoretical probability, which assumes that the coin is "fair:"  (75/2)/75 = 0.50
