Peter is interested in designing an experiment to test the probability of tossing a certain number on a fair cube. He will toss one cube 10 times in a row and count how many times the cube lands on the number 4. What is one aspect of this experiment he can change to make the results even more accurate?
He can toss the cube more than 10 times
It would help to record the numbers for all tosses as a comparison.
more than one cube
One aspect of this experiment that Peter can change to make the results more accurate is by increasing the number of trials or tosses of the cube. By increasing the number of tosses, Peter can reduce the impact of random variations and obtain a more reliable estimate of the probability.
To do this, Peter can increase the number of times he tosses the cube from 10 to a larger number, such as 50 or 100 tosses. This will give him a larger dataset and a more representative sample of the cube's behavior. Additionally, he can repeat this experiment multiple times and calculate the average results to further improve accuracy.
By increasing the number of tosses and repetitions, Peter can minimize the potential impact of any outliers or anomalies, and obtain a more precise estimation of the probability of landing on the number 4 when tossing the cube.
