A 6-sided number cube is rolled 300 times. The number 5 comes up 44 times.
a. What is the theoretical probability of rolling a 5? Write your answer as a fraction in simplest form.
b. What is the experimental probability of rolling a 5? Write your answer as a fraction in simplest form.
(HELP ME OR ILL GO NUTZ !)
Tee👅✨😻 .
Pr=1/6
pr'=44/300=11/75
I think
A: 1/6
B. 44/300
Because theoretically the probability of you rolling a 5 are 1 in 6
and experimental is that 5 did come up 44 times out of the 300 times rolled
Thank you !!!! Yore a life saver !!
Don't worry, I'm here to help you! Let's break down the problem step by step to find the answers.
a. To find the theoretical probability of rolling a 5 on a 6-sided number cube, we need to calculate the ratio of the favorable outcomes (number of times a 5 can appear) to the total number of possible outcomes (which is the total number of rolls, in this case 300).
The number cube has 6 sides, so each side has an equal probability of landing face up. Therefore, the probability of rolling a 5 is 1 out of 6, or 1/6.
So the theoretical probability of rolling a 5 is 1/6.
b. To find the experimental probability of rolling a 5, we look at the actual number of times the 5 appeared in the 300 rolls. In this case, the number 5 came up 44 times out of 300 rolls.
To calculate the experimental probability, we divide the number of times the event occurred (44) by the total number of trials (300).
So the experimental probability of rolling a 5 is 44/300.
I hope that helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.
