In a hybrid com research project, 200 seeds were planted, and 110 of them germinated. Find the empirical probability that any particular seed of this type will germinate.

The empirical probability is $\square$.
(Type an integer or decimal rounded to three decimal places as needed.)

Step 1 ：In a hybrid com research project, 200 seeds were planted, and 110 of them germinated. We are asked to find the empirical probability that any particular seed of this type will germinate.

Step 2 ：The empirical probability of an event is calculated by dividing the number of times the event occurs by the total number of trials. In this case, the event is a seed germinating, and the total number of trials is the total number of seeds planted.

Step 3 ：So, to find the empirical probability, we need to divide the number of seeds that germinated (110) by the total number of seeds planted (200).

Step 4 ：Using the formula for empirical probability, we get \( \frac{110}{200} = 0.55 \)

Step 5 ：Final Answer: The empirical probability is \( \boxed{0.55} \)
