Question

Elijah tosses a number cube several times. he got the number 1 on 5 of the tosses. based on theoretical probabilities, what is the best estimate of the total number of times he tosses the cube?

hint: set up proportion

Answer 1

30 times

Explanation:

There is a 1/6 chance on getting any number on the cube and he got 1 5 times. I'd say it took him 30 tries saying he got 1 on his first try and 6 more each time he got 1. 30/6 = 5
