scientific method

1.start with observations qualitative and quantitative data/your existing knowledge then 2. make a hypothesis aka your prediction then 3.make your experiment to get your conclusions and revise your hypothesis 4.then after that process you start making your theory(hypothesis supported by many experiments)make more experiments to revise your theory to 5.then create a scientific law if proven true
