A fair six-sided die is rolled 54 times. Theoretically, about how many times should a roll of "5" occur?

A.
5
B.
There is no way to tell.
C.
14
D.
9

D. 9

Each number on the fair six-sided die has an equal probability of occurring, which is 1/6. Therefore, out of 54 rolls, the theoretical expected number of times a "5" occurs is 54 x (1/6) = 9.
