@ijakez please help

Normally, the probability of rolling any number on a 6 sided dice would be 1/6, but this asks for the experimental probability, which is the probability you can determine from her experiment. So, you have to use the experiment as a guideline. How many times does she roll the dice total? How many times does she roll a 6?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the total time she rolls is the trials and the result is what it landed on i guess?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

right @ijakez

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah. So how many times does she roll the dice and how many times does it land on 6?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well she rolls has 1000 trials, out of those 1000, 150 are sixes 150/1000 = 0.15?

@ijakez ? did i get it right mate?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yep! That's right! But you have to convert 0.15 to a percent and then you're done.
