Question

A standard number cube was rolled multiple times, and the results were recorded in the table above. What can be said about the experimental probability of rolling a four versus the theoretical probability of rolling a four?

Answer 1

Answer 2

What is the experimental probability? In other words, out of the 12 trials, how many times was a four rolled?

Answer 3

3 times

Answer 4

Right, so 3/12, or 1/4
In theory, what is the probability of getting a four on a six-sided die?

Answer 5

1/6

Answer 6

So which probability is bigger, and by how much?

Answer 7

the higher probably would be 1/4 = 3/12
rather than 1/6, 2/12
so 1/4 is greater by 1/12

Answer 8

so is that theoretically ?

Answer 9

its theoretical nvm

Answer 10

No, the experimental probability was higher: 3/12
The theoretical probability was lower: 2/12
The experimental probability is 1/12 greater than the theoretical

Answer 11

so experimentally ?

Answer 12

Right, so A

Answer 13

thank you
