There are 3 yellow, 3 green, and 3 red pens in a jar. Each day Michelle selects a pen without looking, uses the pen, and then replaces it in the jar. Over 14 days she selects a red pen 6 times. Compare the theoretical and experimental probabilities of this experiment.
(Hint: Calculate the theoretical probability and experimental probability
separately)

Theoretical Probability: she will pick the red pen 4-5 times in the 14 days (14days/3options=4.667times picked over the duration of the time allotted).

Experimental Probability: she picks the red pen 6/14 times

So the experimental is 1-2 times more than predicted via theoretical probability
