A number cube is rolled 360 times, and the results are recorded as follows: 96 ones, 31 twos, 49 threes, 76 fours, 45 fives, and 63 sixes. What is the experimental probability of rolling a 2 or a 3?

Final answer:

The experimental probability of rolling a 2 or a 3 can be found by dividing the number of times a 2 or a 3 was rolled by the total number of rolls.

Step-by-step explanation:

The experimental probability of rolling a 2 or a 3 can be found by adding the number of times a 2 or a 3 was rolled (31 + 49 = 80) and dividing by the total number of rolls (360).

Experimental probability = Number of successful outcomes / Total number of outcomes

Experimental probability of rolling a 2 or a 3 = 80 / 360 = 2 / 9

Therefore, the experimental probability of rolling a 2 or a 3 is 2/9 or approximately 0.2222.

Do 80 divided by 360 and that’s your answer
