The teacher of a seventh-grade class flipped a coin 100 times. the students recorded the results in the table shown below: pic below which of the following best describes the experimental probability of getting tails? the experimental probability is 2% lower than the theoretical probability. the experimental probability is the same as the theoretical probability. the experimental probability is 2% higher than the theoretical probability. the experimental probability cannot be concluded using the data in the table.

As always, you need to be very careful to understand the base (reference) when discussing percentages.

The experimental probability of getting tails is 48%. The theoretical probability of getting tails is 50%. When you take the difference of these numbers, you can conclude ...
   The experimental probability is 2% lower than the theoretical probability


Often, when we talk about something being a percentage lower or higher than something else, we use the "something else" as the base. Here the theoretical probability is 0.50, so the experimental probability is
   (0.48 -0.50)/0.50*100% = -4%
relative to the theoretical probability. That is, one could also say "the experimental probability is 4% lower than the theoretical probability of obtaining tails."
