On a biased dice the probability of getting 1 is 0.3. The ice is rolled 150 times. How many ones would you expect to roll?

Answer: 45

=====================================================

Work Shown:

n = number of rolls = 150

p = probability of rolling a "1" = 0.3

n*p = expected number of "1"s that show up out of the 150 rolls

n*p = 150*0.3

n*p = 45

We expect about 45 ones will show up.
