There is a 1/6 chance of getting any of the numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6.
The median of these scores is 3.5, meaning that by chance 50% of the time you would get above 3.5 and 50% of the time you would get below.
Using that reasoning. it would be fair to charge $3.50 a roll. However, if I were running the game, I would charge at least $4, so I could make a profit.
