If we toss one die 1000 times, how many times would we expect to get a 5?

500/3 times, you set this up 1(representing the 5 on a die)/6(representing the amount of sides on a die) multiplied by 1000(the amount of time you want to toss the die)

Answer: about 168

Step-by-step explanation: 1/6*1000 = 166.67 which rounds to 167

A better answer is 167, but 168 is close enough
