- 8.The data show the daily high temperature in a town every day for a week. Mon Tue Wed Thu Fri Sat Sun 76∘F 78∘F 81∘F 74∘F 69∘F 69∘F 70∘F How can you find the experimental probability that the high temperature on a given day was warmer than 75∘F? Count the number of days with temperatures above 75∘F and divide that number by the number of days in the week. Count the number of days with temperatures below 75∘F and divide that number by .75∘F.
