They determined that 115 of the students had graduated. Thus, for the graduation rate, the size of the sample space was Assuming a uniform probability model for these 115 successful graduates, the theoretical probability of having been in a Greek organization should be However, when the actual data was examined, the study found that of the successful graduates had been fraternity or sorority members , while only 40 graduates were not affiliated. Thus, the experimental probability of a graduate belonging to a Greek organization was which was the expected theoretical probability
