Question

the experimental probability of getting a 3 on a number cube is 5/36. which of the following is true about the experimental probability? the number 5 was rolled 36 times. the number 3 was rolled 5 times in 36 trials. the number cube was rolled 41 times. after 5 trials, the number 3 was rolled 36 times.

Explanation:

Experimental probability is calculated as \( \text{Experimental Probability}=\frac{\text{Number of successful trials}}{\text{Total number of trials}} \). Given the experimental probability of getting a 3 is \( \frac{5}{36} \), this means the number of times 3 was rolled (successful trials) is 5 and total trials are 36. So the statement "The number 3 was rolled 5 times in 36 trials" matches the given experimental probability.

Answer:

The number 3 was rolled 5 times in 36 trials.
