Respuesta :
The theoretical probability of rolling a three would be 1/6.
1/6 expressed as a decimal would be 0.17.
1/6 expressed as a decimal would be 0.17.
Answer:
The probability of the number cube showing a 3 = 0.1667
Step-by-step explanation:
A number cube with the numbers 1 through 6 is rolled.
So, The numbers which are marked on the cube : 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6
Total no. of numbers which are marked on the number cube = 6
No. of times the number cube is rolled = 1
We need to find the theoretical probability, as a decimal, of the number cube showing a 3.
Therefore, The probability of the number cube showing a 3 is given by :
[tex]\text{Probability = }\frac{\text{No. of favorable outcomes}}{\text{Total no. of possible outcomes}}\\\\\implies\text{Probability = }\frac{1}{6}\\\\\implies \text{Probability }\approx =0.1667[/tex]
