Answer 1

The experimental probability of the next muffin sold being a pumpkin spice muffin is 1/5.

Explanation:

The experimental probability of the next muffin sold being a pumpkin spice muffin can be calculated as the ratio of the number of pumpkin spice muffins sold to the total number of muffins sold. In this case, 4 out of 20 muffins were pumpkin spice. So the experimental probability can be expressed as 4/20 or simplified to 1/5.
