[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

To find the experimental probability of picking a red ball from Bowl A, we need to add up the total number of red balls selected from Bowl A and divide it by the total number of balls selected from Bowl A.

Total number of red balls selected from Bowl A: 15
Total number of balls selected from Bowl A: 15 + 5 = 20

Experimental probability of picking a red ball from Bowl A = 15/20 = 0.75 = 75%

Therefore, the correct answer is 75%.
