Question

a die is a small cube used in games of chance. it has six sides, and each side has 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 dots painted on it. if you roll a die, the number 4 should come up about 1 time out of every 6 times the die is rolled. if you roll a die 396 times, about how many times do you expect the number 4 to come up? the number 4 should come up about times.

Explanation:

Step1: Identify probability

The probability of rolling a 4 on a fair - six - sided die is $\frac{1}{6}$.

Step2: Calculate expected number

Multiply the total number of rolls by the probability. Let $n$ be the number of times we expect 4 to come up. We have $n = 396\times\frac{1}{6}$.
$n=\frac{396}{6}=66$.

Answer:

66
