Question

76 Unit 1 Numeric Data: Visualize and Organize 1 1. The probability of rolling a 4 with one standard six-sided die is - because there is one side with 4 dots, and six sides 6 total that could be showing when the die stops. Write this probability in equivalent forms as a decimal (rounded to three places) and as a percentage (rounded to one decimal place).

Answer 1

EXPLANATION

A simple event is an event with only one outcome. In this case, we are rolling a 4 so this is a compound event with more than one outcome.

So the size of the sample space is 1,2,3,4,5,6 and to get a 4 when rolling a six-sided die is:

Probability= Number of desired outcomes/Number of possible outcomes

Replacing terms:

1/6=0.167

So, the answer is 0.167.
