3/6 = 1/2 chance of rolling 4 or above
so if you roll a cube 1000 times the chances of you making 4 or above is half
so the answer is 500

no the ans is 333
OpenStudy (anonymous):
how
OpenStudy (anonymous):

4 or greater meaning 4,5,6
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so
(2/6)x1000 =333
OpenStudy (ranga):
Greater than 4 here is getting a 5 or a 6.
P(5) = 1/6
P(6) = 1/6
P(5) or P(6) = P(5) + P(6) = 1/6 + 1/6 = 2/6 = 1/3
If rolled 1000 times, the number of times of getting either a 5 or a 6 is 1000 * 1/3 = 333.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
out of six times we can expect number greater than four = 2 times
out of one time we can expect number greater than four = 1/3 times
out of 1000 times we can expect number greater than four = 1000/3= 333.33 times
OpenStudy (anonymous):
no it says 'greater than 4' not '4 or geater than it'

the question isn't asking greater than 4 the question is asking 4 OR above
