If you rolled a dice 96 times, how many times would you expect to roll a number less than 3??
2 of the 6 numbers are less than 3, so 2/6 * 96 = ___ times
thank you this helped me very much
To find out how many times you would expect to roll a number less than 3 when rolling a dice 96 times, we can use probability.
A standard 6-sided die has 2 numbers less than 3, which are 1 and 2. So the probability of rolling a number less than 3 on any given roll is 2/6, or 1/3.
To find the expected number of times you would roll a number less than 3, we can multiply the probability by the number of trials. In this case, the number of trials is 96.
Expected number = Probability of success * Number of trials
Expected number = (1/3) * 96
Calculating this expression, we have:
Expected number = 32.
Therefore, you would expect to roll a number less than 3 approximately 32 times when rolling a dice 96 times.
